SHERIFFS COURT.—YEirrEADAT.

HAMMOND V. STIADS.--AkTfORNIT'S COSTS.
This was an action to recover 91. bile., the balance of a bill
of exchange, of which it was alleged in the declaration the
defendant was the acceptor. The defendant denied his ac-
ceptance, and pleaded that the bill was not, as alleged by
the plaiatiff, endorsed by one William Edwards to him
(plaintiff).
Mr. Lush appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Charnock
for the defendant.
It appeared from the arguments of the learned counsel
for the plaintiff, and the evidence adduced, that the plaintiff
was a solicitor, occupying chambers in Fornivarsien, and
residing at Finehley, and the defendant was a carrier from
that place to London. In the month of January, 1848, be
was indebted to a person of the name of Edwards residing
in the New Court, in the suet of 19!. lie. 6d., and he gave
a bill of exchange for that sum to Edwards. and subs.•
guently he paid off rather more than 101. Edwards died
some short time after the last instalment, and W. Edwards,
jun., son of the drawer of the bill, endorsed it to the present
plaintiff to recover upset it, his father having endorsed it to
him. It was proved that the defendant had promised to
pay, and had paid ammo{mtdisg expense incurred in the pre-
paration as snit spa the 111 l bat as he refused to accept
