BLACK crA. ELSEY.

The Plaintiff is a Baker ; the. Defendant a Sta-
tioner, who lived in Thatnea-street, who had Paper
Mills, and who in the year 1799.a150 ground -corn,
and sold meal and flour. This was an Aetion for
selling to the Plaintiff a certain quantity of flOur
Of so bad a,quality as-that he could not sell the
bread that was made of it, .lost his customers by
trying it,.and some of which he could.not use at all:
The Defendant, in his letters to, the Plaintiff,
admitted some of the flonr to be bad, changed it,
sc, but the Plaintiff contended that the change
was not for the better.
The Defendant arrested the Plaintifrfor the Value
of flour sold to him. The Defendant could not pay
any money ; he gave a Warrant of Attorney for
the debt with Interest from the time it was due,
payable by instalments, at three guineas per month.
The Defendant spewed the Plaintiff much indul-
gence as to the instalments, but after the last of
them was paid, the Plaintiff said to the Defendant's
Attorney, " It is now my turnro go to law, and I
will work Mr. Elsey for his bad flour," and shortly
afterwards brought this Anion.
It was contended on the part of the Defendant,
that the ,Plaintiff in this- Aaion had waved his
right to exhibit any complaint against the De-
fendant, by entering into this warrant of Attorney
to confess judgment for the whole debt : for that
if he had been improperly treated, he ought to
have made his stand upon some of the instalments,
and refused to pay them, and come to the Court
With his coMpiaint, if he was ill treated, but that
in truth, he now came forward with a pathetic tale
to the Jury, when the real case was, that he had
behaved with ingratitude to the Defendant, who
had shewn inuch_kindness to him, &c.
On the part of the Plaintiff, it was contended,
That the Defendant was a very rich man, and the
Plaintiff a very poor on.e, and was as much uniler
the Defendant's grindstone as the corn he turned
into bad flour.—That, when he was arrested, it
was a play upon words to say he could effe6tually
complain of the Defendant.—That he was in the
Lion's den, and that lie dared not attempt a vindi-
Cation of his case until he had got out of the De-
fendant's clutches by paying to him every farthing
of his debt, together with interest, costs of suit,
4.:e. and that as soon as he could do so, without a
prospect of destruction, he did bring 'forward this
Aaiun.

After the Evidence had been gone through on
both ,sides,
Lord ELLEN.BOROUGH left the whole of the
case entirely to the Jury, to consider, first, wile_
tiler the Defendant had or had not waved his right
of Alion by confessing his debt to the Defndant,
