an.swered, he 114 not ; the Defendant then,,
seeing some undressed skins lying in the shop, said
he- was a skin-finisher, and he would take them
and finish them for him, if be 'had a mind, and 'he
might as well give them to him 'as to any one else.
Accordingly, he' ave him skins to. the fitnonnnt of.
21. 175. the Defendant promising tO finish them 01F
as fast as he possibly could. They remained a long
time in his possession.i The Plaintiff' having fimod
that the mother of the Defendant kept a leather
shop, and that several skins belonginit to him were.
exposed for sale by her;• went to the Defendant; and
asked for his property ; but he refused to.-give it ;
and tonic:up a large knife that is used in finishing
leather, and threatened to finish him,: if he did not
go about his business. The Plaintiff afterwards
sent several times to the Defendant to demand his
property, but he always refused/to give it up, of.
fering to pay him for it at the .rate of five shil-
lings a month ; and, on that being refused on the.
part of the Plaintiff, the Defendant said, he was a
minor, and did not care a d7—'n for the law; but
if he proceeded againat him, tie would go into
gaol, and spend the money joviially. The Plaintiff,:
findiog it impossible to get his skins from the De-
fendant, in the manner he had heretofore -prayed,
agreed with a Mr. Fetherston, that they should go,
to the ,Defendant's house, and that Fetherstian
should pass himself on Graham as a country gentle-
man, wanting to purchase skins. They went there
accordingly, bought the skins, and packed them on
a dray brought for the purpose : taut Graham, find-
ing out the deception before the good, left the
door, ordered his men to -take them off the dray,
and bring them into his shop again, saying, '' he'd
be d---d if they should go."
Serjeant Sn Ern 4$D, fur the Plaintiff, here closed
his case, after establishing those fans by respedable
w itnei,seS.

Serjcant BEST, ,for the Defendant, moved. .the.•
Court that the Plaintiff should be non.sitited, and.
argued that this aCtion could not be maintained.un,
der the declaration, which states that he unjustly
detains them; and, as they were given to him fir
the purpose of finishing, it was not to be supposed
w
he as la &liver them until tharwas perfeeted ; that
,'
this should not have been anaCtion in deteirge,
specitic of anion which had not hien tried this cen-
tury past, but iin a,qion in a/sari:put on a special:
bailment. ,

Sir JANIRS MANSFIELD 9344 he. would, not pre.
tend to determine .on this point; that if the law
was with the I.)efendant, he should
.ha ve the bene-
fit.of it ; hut, otherwise,' it appear'ed to hiin to be
a gross fraud.. . .

should be

was goon got under, but not without the building
being much damaged, and some property within it
destroyed. _ • • • ,
