remedies ellen*
Mr. Baron Bramwell, in summing up, mid the only two
questions were whether the defendant was justified in ems-
oilttiag the assault ; and if so, whether he had mod aay
moms of violence. The plaintiff was entitled to their
verdict if the beating was not in self-defence, or was move
than was necessary for that purpose. They bad not to con-
sider whether the defendant wee in the house for the pur-
pose of committing adultery with Mrs. Payne, or for any
other unlawful object, because in either cue the plaintiff
bad no right in law to beat him, and if he did beat Lim the
defendant was justified in defending himself. Tboueb that
was the law, still if they thought their verdict should be
for the plaintiff, and believed that he found the defendant
in a situation which lett no doubt that he had committed
adultery with his wife, and did no more than fell him to the
mud, they ought to give him damages with no niggard
band.
