BARLEY V. SANDLE, CUTTS, AND SMITH.
The plaintiff, by his declaration, complained that the de-
fendants Sandie and Cutts, in July, put up certain estates
for sale by auction, and advertised the sale to be without re-
serve, and that to "puffers" should be employed, but that
Smith was employed by them as a puffer, by reason whereof
the plaintiff was induced to purchase two lots at a higher price
than he should have given ; and the plaintiff sought to recover
damages for this alleged injury.
The facts of this case were singular, and excited great in-
terest from the respectability of the parties concerned.
Mr. Barley is an attorney at March, in the Isle of Ely ; Mr.
Cutts is also an attorney, and resides in Essex; and the
other two defendants are gentlemen of fortune in that
county, Smith being a Quaker. In 1638 a Miss Matthews
died, having by her will devised certain estates at March to a
Mrs. Stebbing for life, with remainder to Sandie in fee. . In
June in that year the dev,see sold a portion of those estates
by auction, and the plaintiff became a purchaser of lots 46
and 50, at the respective sums of 740/. and 2,880/.
Thtion was held in the Assembly-room, at the Griffin, inAciaaruer,
1 and in the orchestra, immediately opposite to the auctionaerear,
sat a rich-looking Quaker stranger, who bid fersisrl
lots, but bought none. The sale produced between .
