'Phis was an aetion td recover from the R-tend=
ant, who i 4 a-Waggdn Owner at Lynn, in NorfOlk;
271. being the amount of a hot of haberdasheiy seat
by the Plaintiffs, Wholeale Haberdashers in. L 94.
don, to a country customer, narned Cooper, resident
-at Lynn, in-Norfolk-. • The gdods. in 'ilue.stion were
ordered by Mr. Cooper, at latter_end of 1805; td
be packed in a box, andlorwarded to him, as usuali
by the wag-gun through Nortvi6 to. Lynn.
A young man, named Jcnninas sho,)man to the
Plaintiff, proved that he bad looked put the.artielep;
and gaVe them to the Warehousetna'n to pack in
box, and send them by the porter to• the waggon.=
office, but he could nocswear that he saw the goods
acibally packed.

Can Tip; the porter, proved his having taken a box to
the waggon-ottice on the day stated, and direded foi
Mr. Cooper, at Lynn ; but he did not see the- goode
packed in the box, and knew nothing of its contents.
Th.: box so direded arrived sate at Norwkh, froin

ing to the Defendant to Lynn,

A mati named Mack, clerk in the waggon office
at Norwich, proved, that he delivered the box U
question to Mr. Tuck's waggoner, to be forwarded
to :Lynn ; but the bot never etas delivered to Mr..,
Cooper, and the Plaintiffs resorted to- this aetion. to
recover the value-oftheir goods..
Sir JAMES MANSFIELD, in summing up for tllO.

\taming in the-chain of evictence; for the testimouf
of the warehouseman, who was,to have packed up
the goods in the bok, had not been brought for-.
ward; and neither Jennings, Who gave .the gootb to
be packed, nor the porter, who-Conveyedthe box to
the vittg*go.nrQffice, collid• speak: to .any•thing. the box
aCtually:contained'; and, for ought they knew, tbo
goods nii,,ht not have been Vioke3 in the box at all.
His Lordship- ha(l.- no doubt the gbefig Were in the
box ; . but -there was -not • that comp.leter degree of
proiil required by law-to warrant a Jury, in finding A
verdiA to the full ambunt..—Verdia fig tOi. and
