Lisoeigehiso le guaranteed by the Great Northern he ha.,
strweled Mr. Remy, a beaker at Meallbs, to buy is Zorn
Lineekairee at 83/ a share, enelnelee of Ile coat of the
N amps. Mr. Harvey, not heeler the=ity baying
the abeam at Manta: wrote to the
him le boy that number of shares, and le tea
breast that they were fur Messrs. Hasid sod Mae. It
coal art be pretended, therefore, that the deibadant did
not hiseir perfectly well that Harvey wee a mere agent is
the boseristion, and that really the Ewe were the
prepay of the plaintiffs. On the led of May
the defsottalit wrote to Mr. H telling him
that he bed wade a purchase of tte fifty Lionise et
321. 16e. a share, and the note he sent down showed that he
had bought them of a person named Co,, and therefore de-
fendant could not be said to be the reader, but only the
agent. In the due course of boainess, the shares would
have been delivered on the 16th of May, and on that day
Harvey got a cheque for the whole amount-1,6435. 16a.—
from the plaintiffs. However, only forty of these shares
were delivered, and for the value of the remaining ten this
action wee brought. It appeared that between the defend-
ant and Mr. Harvey an account current WIN kept, and evi-
dence would be given to show that Mr. Harvey paid to the
defeadant the whole of the money owing on thin shares,
bat in the result Mr. Harvey got into difficulties, and he
then owed a balance of upwards of 600 i. However, the
learned counsel said he should be able to prove
that the defendant said he had received the money
for these 60 shares, and there was the difficulty. Never-
theless, upon taking advice, he refused to deliver up the
remaining 10 shares. He should also be able to prove that
when the transfers of them 10 shares were handed to him,
they were made out in the name of the plaintiffs, but after-
wards the defendant went to get the plaintiffs' names
struck out, and his own name inserted. He (Mr. Knowles)
hoped tha. for the credit of the London Stock Exchange no
one would come forward to prove that that is a rule of the
Exchange, and in the result of this cause, he hoped the
Jury would have no doubt but the plaintiffs were entitled to
a verdict

The plaintiff, Mr. Rudd, and other witnesses, were then
examined, but before the close of the ease for the plaintiff,
an arrangement was come to, and a juror was withdrawn,
the terms being that the shares are to be given up in a
month.
