LEGAL INTELLIaENCE.
Intercsiins Decision as to Grouad Reu


COuRT OF COMMON PLEAs-Judges Thomp-
son and Ludlow knike VS.. Mathers This was
d case stated. Plaintiff claimed on two grounl
rent deeds, dated October ~, l773, in each Of
which there was a reservation OF ground rent OF
twtnty-one pure silver coined Spanish pieces of
eicht and one-third of such piece OF eighE,
each piece of eight weighing seventeen
pcnnyWeights aud six grains, or 30 much OF the
lawful money of the province Of Pennsylvania,
as shall be sufficient from time % time 20 "pur-
chase or procure" the same, with covenant for
the payment Of such rent By the grantee, his
heirs, and assigns, in tho same words as the
reservation.
Attbe time the annual rents fell due October
y, 1868 the defendants, who were then owners
oftLe lots, out of which the ground rents were
reserved, rendered twenty-one dollars aud one
third In legal tender notes Of the United Sta,es as
satisfaction of each Of said annual rents. Plain
til refused to accept the tender
The case stated gave the value Of piece OF
eight OH October H. 1861 the highest value stnce,
and the value at the time the case was sub nited,
and on argument the plaintiff claimed that he
was entitled to q Judgment for the highest value
of the pieces of eight between the time when the
rents fell due and the time of trial.
Judge Thompson, observing that the case did
not call for any examination or decision upon the
consttutionality of the legal tender acts Of Con-
gress, held
tender Of the notes that the reservation was OF
particular kind of COIN with the alternative of It's
landlord was entitled either TO the particular kind
of coin or its real value in lawful money.
@ That the measure Of damages was the value
of the coin at the time the rent fell due, and that
the plaintiff could not recover more on the ground
that that description Of coin had since been worth
more.
Judge Ludlow concurred in the Judgment, and
called attention TO the pecuiarty of the reserya-
tiOn in It's alternative clause, calling for lawful
money of the Province (now the State) OF Penn
sylyania Without considering the question OF
the power Of Congress 20 provide what money
shall be a legal tender in payment Of debts
throughout the United States, under the Const-
tuition of the State Of Pennsylvania, its Legisla-
ture can mako nothing but gold and silver legal
tender.
The judgment was for the Value OF the particu-
lar coin on October II, 1868, with interest 20 date
OF judgment. Longstreth for plaintiffs William
w. Wister for defendant.
