- LAW INTI;LLIGENCE•

CURT OF K;NO'S BENCH. WWITIMINSTER, ictre 9.
WATTS r. TUCKS*.
• This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a
boolmistress at Brixton, to recover the amount of
t r hill. 171. 2s. 9d. was claimed for three months
I Booting of the defendant's two daughters ; 15/.
was paid into court; and the disputed 21. 20. was the
barge for entrance. This point, however, did not go
at once to the Judge, but resolved itself into a ques-
ton of fact as to the agreement between the parties:
to.e evidence was contradictory.
The Loan Cam JL'STICS said that cognizance of
the plaintiff's terms having been proved upon the de-
: •ndant. the once was upon him to show, and by
:ear evidence, that the charge in question had been
bored.

The Jury found a verdict for the defendant.
lIIIMMINGS V. HAZLEWOOD.
This was an action to recover from defendant the
'value of twa casks of oil, under the following circuits.
mance, :—The plaintiff was an oilman, and the du-
fendant an ironmonger. On the day mentioned la
the record, the plaintiff's man was proceeding up St.
John's Street, in a cart, in which were two casks of
oil, driving slowly, and on his own side of the street $1
the defendant and another person with him in a se.
cund cart, came driving Suit:tally after him, and al-
thoegh the street wax in this part 14 feet wide, and
the plaintiff's cart did not occupy more than six feet
Ind a half, the defendant drove furiously against the
p!aintiff's cart, caught the stock hoop of the wheel,
and pnlling the cart round, snapped the shaft!; the
cart went down, and one of the casks rolled out and
v:..s staved, and all the oil except akin four gallons
was lust. To recover the value of the oil thus lust
the present action was brought. Sevetal witnesses
were called to prove that the plaintiff's servant was
driving carefully and slowly, and did all in his power to
get out of danger. It was also proved that the cart
was sound and strong, and that the quantity of oil
lost was 69 gallons, worth 8/. 1118. The cask was
valued at 10s., and the repair of the cart cost 41.,
making together 131, which sum the plaintiff sought
to recover by the present action.
Mr. CASIIERD, f •r the defendant, contended that the
accident occurred in consequence of the Plaintiff's ser-
vant having been on the wrong side of the Street, and
owing to the cart being too weak and alight to sustain
the load placed upon it. The Learned Counsel called
persons to support this statement. The defence, how-
ever, failed ; and the Jury found a verdict for the
plaintiff—Damages 13/. ; costs 411 s.
