Will BORNE,

Courrir Ctrhrr, Wednesday—Before E. Everett,
Eaq., Judge.—Peonere. Spencer—Mr. Tanner. who
appeared for the plaintiff, stated that be claimed the
sum of £l7 19a 3d., for damages sustained by the
plaintiff for that the defendant would not swept
certain besets of the plaintiff, or pay him for thr
name according to a contract in that behalf, made cn
or about the nth January last. Plaintiff (who is a
farmer residing at Uttle Danford, near Wimborne)
stated that oft the 49th January last, defendant (•lio
is a butcher and meat contractor at Southampton)
went to his farm mad examined nine beasts, one cow
in calf, and eleven pigs, for which be agreed to give
6d. per stone under the top metropolitan market
prim for the ma and beset., at the time of the same
being killed, and 10e. and lie. ter soots for the pike.
Tbe COW and pigs were to be killed and taken away
by the defendant within a day or two, but the beasts
were to remain in plaintiff'. posteriori until they
were in better condition. The pigs and cow were
killed and taken away as agreed, but the defendant,
although repeatedly applied to by plaintiff to take
the remaining nine bast*, refueled to do so. The
plaintiff wee supported by one witness. Mr.
Atkinson. solicitor, Blandford, who appeared for the
defendant, denied the contract as to the nine beasts.
The defendant and two witnesses were examined in
support of the definite. It was proved in evidence
that the plaintiff bad given defendant notice of his
intention to sell the beasts if tot taken away by a
oertein day, and bold him (defendant) respoesible
for eel damage he might sustain. Defendant failed
to take the beams, and plaintiff accordingly had
them killed, and dent their carcasss in two lots to
the London market at about a week'. interval. The
plaintiff had taken the prices of the Loudon markets
on eight separate days, which 'hewed In average of
be per stone. The difference in the amount realised
by the plaintiff and the price to be given by the
defendant, taking the average at Csa per stone,
amounted to the sum of £l7 It.. 3d. the damages
claimed. His Honor held that the contract was
proved on the part of plaintiff, and gave judgment
for £7 19s. 3d., striking of £lO from the plaintiff's
claim, go account of his having *old the beasts on
two different days, mid thereby not realising so much
by about £lO as be would have done bad he sold the
whole on the first day. There were upwards of 140
plaint, entered for this court, abort tir of which
were settled before the day of hearing, and the
remainder are devoid of public interest.
