SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
(Bef)re Mr. Secondary POTTER
SMITH, CLERK, U. YOUNGHUSITAND.
The plaintiff; who is a clergyman, brought an action
against defendant On a guarantee. 'lle guarantee was
given in favour of a stockbroker, who had been
entrusted with 3501. to invest in railway shares; a
portion of these shares were delivered, but there was a
balance due of 701. 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 guarastee, which was unlike a bill of exchange,
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.

fewlant is a tradesman residing in Holborn, and the ac-
tion 191 s brought to recover the sum of V. 10s. 61. f r

tendered 4/. 10s. 6d., and 1/. 125., the cost of the writ,
but refused to pay for the declaration, and cl,ferid4,.e,
solicitor strongly complained of his client beii g put to
the costs of an action in the superior cour, and the jwy

tled to adopt the course he had, and the case being clearly
made out, the jury could not avoid giving a verdict Jr the amount.
The jury found for the phint!ff.
