LAW INTELLIGENCE.

. COURT OF .KING'S BFNCII--(Titis DAY)..
Sittings at Guildhall before the Lord Chief Justice.

SLOSS AND ANOTHER 'V. DRAKE.
Mr. COMYN opened the pleadings.
Mr. MARRYATT stated the case. This was an ac-

tion.brought for work and labour dope. The plaintiffs
are ship builders in Bermondsey, and the defendant is
a .Sea Captain. The defendant had applied to the
plaintiffs to repair a schooner, called The Rising Sun ;
the plaintiffs (lid repair her to the satisfactifin of the
defendant ; the defendant refused to pay the amount of
the repairs, 871. and a' fraction, and for the recovery of
it the present action was brought. The defendant had
threatened to Make this a Special Jury cause, and
therefore ,it had been in the paper for some time ;
but yet it was not supposed any strenuous defence
would now be made. The servants of the plaintiffs
proved the orders given by the defendant, the work
done,. and the reasonableness of the charges ; and no
defence having been set up,' the Jury found for the
plaintiffs.
