KERRY v. COISTNOP.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a widow, car-
rying on the business of a farrier at Newmarket, against the
defendant, a gentleman well known on the race course, and
the owner of several race-horses, 'to recover 21/. 1 ls. 6d. for
shoeing the defendant's horses while they were stationed at
Newmarket, in March 1842.
The defence was, that the work was not done for
and on defendant's credit, but that the agreement was
entered into by one Price, the training groom of the
defendant, on his own credit, and not on the credit of
the defendant, and also that there was an agreement
at that time between Captain Meynell and defendant
that defendant should pay all the expenses of the horses of
Captain Meynell at the Hippodrome, and that Captain
Meynell should pay all expenses of the defendant's horses
when at Newmarket. Captain Meynell proved this agree-
ment, and that if the work had been done he considered he
was liable to pay the amount, but had not been called on,
In the course of the cause it was stated that in the action
brought by Lord George Bentinek, against Mr. Connop to
recover his stakes in the Grand Duke Michael Stakes, imme.
diately after the judgment of the. Court of Queen's Bench
on Saturday in favour of Mr. Connop, he attended at Tat-
tersall's, and gave notice that he would pay the amount of
his stakes, notwithstanding such judgment.
Mr. Martin and Mr. Worledge for the plaintiff; Arr. Erle,
and Mr. Worsley for defendant.

The retired to consider their verdict, after
being absent juryabs enthuagpivnards of a quarter of an hour, returned into
Court, but were requested not to give a verdict, the plaintiff
wishing to withdraw a juror.. The defendant immediately
consented and a juror was then withdrawn.
It was intimated by the • foreman afterwards, they were
prepared to return a verdict for the plaintiff for the full
amount claimed.
