This wee a case in which the plaintiff, • publican, sought
to recover a sum of from the defendant, as agent for
Maier Reed at the last election for Finsbury.
The plaintiff stated that be received a written communi-
cation from the defendant, requesting that a room should
be prepared in his (plaintiWs) house, se a committee room.
He new daleadant on the subject, and it was agreed
that a room should be let for that purpose, and the claim
now made was for the hire of the room, rebeehments to
the clerks, and plastering the front of the house.
Hie Honour—Why did you do that
Plaintiff—l mesa pording-billa all over the front—
" Major Raid for Finsbury."
Hie Hower—You charge for gas. Yon oat d that
above the rant.

Plaintiff--Oh, they sat up all home, long beyond the
time agreed on, which was from 8 till IL
The defendant said be bad engaged the mom in the name
of Major Reed, but he disputed the refreehments charged.
He had sent in all the admitted amounts to the auditor. Ile
said that he had been overwhelmed with amount, of very
denomination ; some were set down as for " trouble," and
one for 25/. (Laughter.) All genuine accounts he led no
doubt would ultimately be paid in full.
His Honour said that he was afraid plaintiff could not re-
cover from the present defendant, although it wan too bad to
stand as a caadidate for parliamentary honours at the expense
of Hemmed victuallers. He did not think the defendant was
preinially liable, as plaintiff knew that he ma an agent for
Major Reed.
