SECONDARIES'.-(THIS DAY.)
(More Mr. Secondary POTTER )
SMITH, CLERK, v. YOUNGHUSBAND.
The plaintiff; who is a clergyman, brought an action
against defendant on a guarantee. The guarantee was
given in favour of a stockbroker, who had teen
entrusted with 350 L to invest in railway shares; a
portion of these shares were delivered, but there wrs a
balance due of 70/. The defendant allowed judgment
to go by default. but an objection was taken that the
stamp was not sufficient in amount.

The SECONDARY held that it was not necessary to
prove the guarantee, which was unlike a bill of excharge,
which showed the stamp, but it was not clear what the
stamp ought to be on a guarantee.,
The jury gave a verdict for 701.
JOTHAM V JONES.

fendant is a tradesman residing in Holborn, slid the ac-
tion was brought to recover the sum of 41. 10s. 61. f...r

tendered 41. 10s. 6d., and 11. 125., the cost of the writ,
but refused to pay for the decla-ation and detendat.t's
solicitor strongly complained of his client being put to
the costs of an action in the superior court, and the jury

tled to adopt the course be had, and the case bring clearly
