Ths plaintiffs in this ogee were wholasale stationing in
Drury-lane, sad they sued to remorse about 2,7001. upon
bills of exchange and also upon counts for goods sold. It
was stated that defendant's company was formed about
seven years ago to carry ou the business of Mr. Dolman,
the catholic bookseller end publisher in Boad-street, and
for some time Mr. Dolman wood as manager of the aim.
posy sad pee the plaintiffs cede,, for supplier of papa.
One of the questions now was whether a omaidenbb prat
of these orders had or had not been executed upon Mr. Dol-
miles personal credit ; sod aeothsr was whether an l
meat that the compur, should accept bills to cover
pace of the paper. was made in such a way as to be bindieegg
1 upon the shareholders. The matters which were defaded
before the jury were of an extremely complicated obaracter,
and it was staid that there bad beim two dean= in
Chanost) in refugees to the stair. The ease occupied the
whole of yesterday and the best part of to-day.
The jury found for the *lutes upon all the questions of
fact loft to them ; but his lordship reserved to the defend-
ante' counsel leave to move the court in bum upon some
questions of law.
