WESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT.

SHAW V. 101.-1

O 1 COPPE6IIOIIIII 13111.1111.

This wee an action in which the plaintiff sought to MC-
Ira. 31. 6.. 6d., the value of s coat, haudkerchief, and
gloves, from Mr. Roe, the proprietor of Roe's Coffee-house,
Bridges-street, COI ant-vides.
The plaintiff had lodged at the house, and previous to
retiring to rest, had left his overcoat anietbe other ankles
is the are of the waiter, who placed them for security in
the parlour behind the tar, whoop they were subsequently
missed.

The case listed a considerable time, and underwent a
searching investigation by the learned judge (Kr. Bayley),
who, after consulting the various legal authorities upon
the subject, gave judgment as fellows:
This is a case of considerable importance, as affecting the
interests of slugs number of tradesmen. It appears to me,
from the evident)* that has been taken, that this coffee-
house, and coffee-houses generally (except in eases where
they hold themselves out as hotel keepers), are not in the
same position as a lioeneed victualler is, who is, in all ogres,
responsible for ICONS occurring in his house. The liability
of the defendant in this cave is, therefore, simply that of a
boarding-house keeper, and not that of an innkeeper. The
only circumstances under which I could and a verdict for
the plaintiff, in a case like this, would be one where negli-
gence is clearly proved. It Is not proved in this cue ; on
the contrary, the evidence is, that the bar wee not left, and
I must, therefore, presume that ordinary and usual atten-
tion was paid. I cannot, in the face of such evidence,
assume that the defendant was guilty of such negligence as
to entitle the plaintiff to my verdict, which will be for the
defendant. _ _ . .

li;:iirnith, who appeared for the defendant, then applied
for the ante, which were allowed.
