BILL OF SALE ON FARMING STOCK.

Cochrane • Collard and others came before Mr. Justice
Field and • common jury in the Queen's Bench Division,
on Monday and Tuesday. It was an action by the holder
of • bill-of-sale to recover the value of certain farming
stock, tit, to which he debased to be entitled under it,
and which had afterwards mane into the possession of the
various defendants—The plaintiff, Mr. A esander Sarjant
Cochrane, carried on business under the style of the
National Deposit Bank, of Russell St, Covent-garden.
The defendant Collard is a farmer at Henstridge, in
Somersetshire, and most of the other defendants are
farmers and butchers in lionetshire. The plaintiff was
the holder of a bill-of-sale dated January 21st, 1878, from
• farmer named Sampson, under which the latter had
assigned to him, in • onsideration of • sum of ,C 1,1.000 all
his furnituret farming stuck, crops, agricultural imple-
ments, fix.. limps= was to pay SIAM in instalments
extending over sonie two years, and another condition
was that he was not to sell anything without the written
consent of the plaint if. As a fact he did sell off every-
thing in March to the defendants, who, it was admitted.
had paid • fair price for whet they hsd had. The plaintiff
claimed that by • breach of the conditions of the
bill of sada the property in the goods of Sampson had
to him, dbe now sought to recover their value
F•rCit'd an
the several defendants. It appeared that on
learn ng what tieuipsou had done, he had gone down to
Doreetshire and represented himself to the defendants to
be • Mr. Henry, who was jo.ntly liable with Sampson for
the £l4OO advanced by the National Deposit Bank.
This he described ass moneylending business in London.
In this way he had ascertained from the defendants
themselves precisely which of Sampson's goods they hall
bought, and he afterwards sent clerks down to get further
information. on bringing this action, he had used these
admissions in the interrogatories administered to the
defendants. In croessimunination, he admitted that in
January, 1878, he was the sole proprietor of the National
Deposit Bank, of which he stated he was now only the
managing director. The
_plaintiff's counsel having put in
the intorrogatorim and the answers to them, the
defendants did not call any witnesses. As to one of the
latter, a brother of the farmer who gave the bill-of-sale, it
was urged that he did not buy anything, but only acted
as his brother's sgent for sale iii the matter; and when
this was left to the jury they found that this had
been the case. But the main question was whether or
not the goods afterwards sold by Sampson to the defend-
ants were on the 21st of January. 1878, on his farm at
Lonsburton. There had been no schedule or inventory
attached to the bill of sale, which, however, was very
comprehensive in its terms, and was made to include any
and everything that was or might in future be on or about
the farm, premises, lc A clerk of he plaintiff had made
• list of the things there just before the execution of the
bill of sale, and the_plaintiff swore he had checked it a few
days afterws de —His Lordship, in rimming up, said it
was the hardest case he had ever known, but that the jury
must disresard the attack., made on the plaintiff by the
defendants' counsel, and r plunder only whether the
evidence satisfied them or not that the goods purchased
of Sampson by the defendants were or. the farm at Long.
burton at the date of the execution of the bill of sale.
—The jiiry, after considering their verdict for half-an-
hour. found for the plaintiff ; and thereupon His Lord-
ship said that, as some pointa had been raised which were
questions of law only, he would reserve the case for further
eonekLeration.
