GARRETT ys. HooD.-A few days SINCE in
the Circuit Court, Judge Olin,) the case of
Milton Garrett against John Hood was tried
Mr.. Blunt for plaintiff and Mr.. M. Thompson
for defendant.
The SUIT was TO recover the amount Of sew
eral notes drawn by Hood in favor of r. b.
!ronside. and endorsed by the latter. The de.
iehoant pleaded non dssumsit, the statute Of
limitation and usury. The plaintiff testified
that he had purchased the notes from Irou-
slde and that they were free from usurv. Mr..
thompson argued that the case of Thompson
against Bowie decided q few weeks since by
Chief Justice Cartter) and this case were per-
fectly analogous, and, although he did not ac-
quiesce In that decision-which he thought
would be overruled by the United States Su-
preme Court-he considered il for the time
being as the law of the court, and he desired
that his client should have the benefit of it. As
in BOwie'S case, evidence had been allowed to
go 10 the jury that the pave cot the notes kepta
gambling house, and none other: that Bowie's
propensity, when drunk, was to visit gambling
houses and play; that he (Bowie) gave a note
bearing the same date with those in the suit to
that Garrett kept a usurious house
that he (Garrett) was engaged in
usurious business and none other; that when
sober his propensity was to en- gage in such bust
ness; that on the same day of the date of the
no es in this suit, Garrett discounted other
notes at usurious rates.
MIR. Thompson argued that there was no dis
tinction in principle between the two cases, and
that if the evidence was admitted in one case it
ought to be admitted in the other
Judge Ohm overruled the offer.
Col. Thompson took exceptions to this ruling,
and the defendant and Mr.. Ironside were put
on the stand, the law now allowing parties to
q suit to testify in their own behalf,) and test-
fled that the notes were made by Hood, and en-.
dorsed by Ironside, at the request and for the
accommodation of Hood, to enable him to raise
money. Garrett discounted the notes at usu.
rious interest. with q full knowledge OF all the
facts.
Judgment was given for defendant.
