ton, on iencLaties
It appeared in evidence, that the plaintiff's clerk
was, on the 12th of May, 1806, shewing some pat-
terns of fancy silks at the shop of Mr. James, in Rath-
bone Place, where he met with Mrs. Lambert, and
understanding she was in business at Brighton, he
solicited her custom ; she said she would'calLon the
plaintiff and look at his goods ; she dicl.ran Ask the
15th, and bought goods to the amount of 131; which
were sent to her at the defendant's house in St. Paul's
Church-yard. After this, they made some inquiries
of Mr. James as to her credit, when he informed
them that he did not know much of her himself, only
that she was an honest industrious woman, and refer-
red them to the defendant who was better acquainted
with her. This was some days after they trusted her.
The plaintiff's brother, Reeett3ones, in 'his evidence,
stated, that the inciaivy took place before the goods
were sent home. The plaintirp travellet sold her
some goods at Brighton on I.Bth of July, when he
made freih enquiries after her credit, and could not
find any thing that was prejudicial 'to her stability.
His Lordship was of opinion drat the new inquiry
took• all responsibility off the defendant for what
goods were furnished her after ttlis period. Oa the
part of the. defendant, it was proved that he made no
representation, only that. she was honest and indus-
trious ; she had been iubusiness at Margate, which
she left without a shilling, but by an account he had,
seen, she was worth between two and three hunched
pounds, and under these circumstances he left it to the
plaintiff to trust her as he thought proper.
Lord Ea.tansonouott was clearly of opinion that
the credit was given before the representation was
made, and the Jury, without the least hesitation,
brought in a verdict for the defendant.
