thing on earth about it, or had the slightest concep-
tion that such a thing had ever previously been
dreamt of. Mi. -Knight's affidavit stated that his
Clerk, who had been in Conrt, bad'communicated to
him, at five o'clock in the afternoon, 'the arrange-
Mem, (this being on the Saturday); that on

l'°rd Tn ENTERDEN proceeded to deliver the ju-
Oleo
b. " of the Court in this case, in which a rule had
,e 4
h, °titan-led on a former day, to show cause why
'
/.erdict should not be set aside, and,n new trial
ve;ll(iti'd. The case was tried at Guildhall, and a
ns
't found for the plaintiffs, who were the assig-
te;,,- °i a Spanish merchant, named Alcedo. The
beli'uri Was brought to recover the amount of certain
of exchange, which Alcedo had discounted, and
i;'lleh remained in his possession at the period of the
kkruptcy. The defence set up was. that the trans-
ion was tainted with usury, and that the assignees
ieNd not recover on the bills. It appeared that
'bogs bills had been discounted through the inter-
:7lltion of a broker, named Bromley, who had pre-
i:°llsly had large transactions with Alcedo, and
to 4cl recommended him certain persons who af-
eattls-became bankrupts, and by whom Al-
1t lost large sums of money. Bromley said
atiLl° consequence of those transactions, he felt
reiroi&ry though there was no legal
.obligation to
retaih'e Alcedo, and agreed that Alcedo should
tore -",,,°11e per cent. out of all bills he should in fu-
made'L'scournt for
.Bromley. This proposition was
11,0 before the bills in question were discounted,
li Ile (Lard Tenterden) told. the Jury, if they be-
hel'ecl that Bromley considered himself under aA
°l4orary obligation to Alcedo, and that the one per
cent'
was given under this consideration, the trans-
!etion was not usurious. It had been argued, that w
,sihis opinion as incorrect but some of his Learned
‘rothers agreed with him, that it was correct, and
qlty were unanimous in
t.l.ilestion was left to the Jury,nsidering, that as the
and they returned a
d7rdict for the plaintiff, the verdict ought not to be
Isturbed. The Court could not therefore consent
grant a new trial, especially when they considered
"e heavy penalties• to -which our laws subjected a
ro who was guilty of usury. They therefore re-
thee ru
motion for a new trial, and discharged
