The plaintiffs in August last were furriers, carrying on business
in Sarah-street, Old-street-road. About six weeks after their
premises and stock in trade had been insured, they were destroyed
by fire. The damages were laid at RON., and it was to recover
that sum that the present action was brought.
A witness named Raphael provedohatAince the fire Mr. Barber•
Beaumont had admitted that there wro.no objection to fulfil the
policy.
In cross-examination, he stated that he was brother-in-law to'
Goldstone the plaintiff. He was livingwith ids father-in-law, in
Prinee's-square, in November, 1824, when a fire happened there.
His father-in-law had another fire in December, 1825, when he
was living in Bedford-street, Commercial-niad. Witness had a
fire himself in October, 1825. He WAS insured.

time of the fire, and related the circumstances attending it. The
plaintiffs made their• escape on a wall, almost in a state of nudity.
