This testimony ass enrmborated by William
Poole, and a person named Shipton, as insomnia-
,,e.r, liting opposite hi the house of the Plaintiff:-
Noise of the witnesses recollected seeing the Plain..
tiff use any excrtions himself to ettinguibh the
fire. Mr. Shipton also stated that Oswald came
into his shop the ensuing morning, when he asked
him at how much he estimated his losses ; to
which Oswald applied, ho thought about 2001.
which Mr. Shipton, at the time, thought very
Unormous.

The next witness C3llcfl was Jobe Han tansy
who stated himself to have been a fireman for thirty
years. Ile arrived on !h.., premise: of the PI 'lutist'
at three o'clock,which was shortly after the fire was
extinguished. He saw the Plaintitl, who to: 1 him
that several bundles of leather had been burnt ;
but, on entering the warehouse, the only mark
of conflagration be could perceiee was the oil
I Cask burnt half way down; and the hole in the
loft, immediately abase it. The tr.ly leather he
saw was on a bench, under the window, VI hick
bore no appearance of having been burnt. From
'bit long experience he was convinced the tire bad
tn:ither been of sufficient duration, nor stratig
enough to burn any quantity of leather, which.
nisi riot very inflammable; added to u hich,
cunt I not perceive, by ashes or ein,ler, hiets
would eertaitily have remained, that there had
been any leather burnt.
Souli corri-re and leather.seflers were then
called,,ybo all agreed that it was impossible for the
quantity of leather alleged to have been burnt, by
the Plaintiff, to have been coosumed in so short A.
time as twenty minutes, or even in a day, if the
fare was ever so great.
Samples of leather, of the various sorts al.
leged to have been burnt, were also pro:Weed ;
and, on comparing the weights and bulk of those
with the demands of the Plaintiff*, whose state.
meat of lo,s amounted to one toil seven hundred
weight, it was evident, that the whole warehouse,
however compacoly filled, could not contain so
luge a goalitity as the estimate of the Plaintiff
specified.
The evidence for the. Defendant having gone
thus far,
Mr. Serjeant SiIEPUZIID, for the. Plaintiff, said,
he thought it woeld be snMecessary to call any
more witnesses, Ms, from the testimony already
given, it was clear the losses of the Plaintiff had
not been so great as represented ; and he regret.
fed that his client should have suffered himself to
have been so ill.adrilled as to mark. the present
sedan.

the Plaintiff was immediately nonsuitetl.
