The decision of the Circuit Court for Talbot

until the present term of the court, was rem
dered, one day last week. As has already been

This position Of the Court was assumed on the
ground that demand was not alleged in the
declara tion to have been made upon the signera

Leave was granted the plaintiff to amend the
declaration.
