Law INTELLIGENCE.
NEW-lOPK:
SITTING BEFORE JUDGE RADCLIrFE,
January 18th, 1904.
E3ApT go HGSA(K
HART Us. HOSACK.


This was an action of assumpsit, for the
return of sum Of money paid, as alledg-
ed by the plaintiff, without any considera~
ton for the same.
The facts which appeared in evidence
were briefly these:-Some years ago son
of the plaintiff, aged about IA years, went
as student of medicine on trial, with the
defendant After remaining in his shop
between four and FIVE months, the young
man took fancy to complete his educrtion
abroad; and accordingly embarked for
London. A few DAYS before his departure
the defendant sent to the plaintiff request
ing his note at go days, for 375 dollars, for
which lie promised to " Qcc0HAt' with him.
The note was given without hesitation,
and some time afterwards the defendant
sent the plaintiff his account charging him
with the above sum ass fee-and creditIng
him with the account of the note paid
The plaintiff insisted that this note was a
Ian, and accordingly commenced a suit
for SO much, as the court and Jury might
think it reasonable to allow, alter deduct
ing a suitable allowance for the time his son
remained student with the d fendant.-
The cause as once before tried, when a
verdict was found for the defendant, tho
against the opinion of the court. The YER
diet was set aside and a new trial ordered.
On this trial it was urged by the counsel
for the plaintiff.
I. That this was to be considered mere
" as lam.
9. That as there was no contract between
the parties to this suit, and as the son had
no authority to bind the father by any bar
gain he might make, the plaintiff could not
in law be liable for an apprentice fee, and
OF course was entitled to repayment of the
sum paid on his note.
s. That at all events the defendant was
only entitled to reasonable compensation,
to a quantun, mes1At, for the time, the
plaintiffs son had actually spent in the stu
dy of phvsic with defendant.
On the part of the defendant it was repli-
ed, that the son with the knowledge of the
father, had engaged in the study of me-
dicine with DR.. Hosack. Having come o.,
trial, and having had sufficient time to make
up his anind, and having resolved to pur-
sue the profession, of medicine, although
abroad, rather than at home--the defend-
ant was Justly entitled to his usual appren-
tice fee. That it would be dangerous
precedent to set to young men, if they had
engaged in profession orllne Of business,
they were at liberty to change their instruc-
tors at pleasure.
The counsel then offered in evidence
DR. H's book Of daily entries, to shew that
this fee was regularly charged, as in other
cases.
To this the counsel for the plaintiff OBJ
iected They commended thar by the SET
tied rule Of law no person could give in evi.
