great effort 70 defeat the clatm. The Board were
fnaily competed to audit and allow it; but they
did Il at iesser amount than was claimed, which
was received by the claimant, who gave receipt
In full. The present action was brought to re-
cover the bAlance-$l5O. The claim was for ser

defence claimed that The plaintiff having once
submitted his claim TO that Board, and they hav-
ing passed upon II and audtted and aiiowed It,
although for . lesser amount that the plaintiff
could not recover In the present action. Mr.. +. H.
Kellogg. counsel for paintif insisted that the Board
OF App0rttonment and Audit had not the discre.
tton or authority TO audit such claim at lesser
amount and thereby prevent the claimant from
recovering the difference In the amount OF the
claim and tho amount OF the audiA The Court
took this view and denied the motion for nom
SUIT on that ground. Mr.. Dean, for che defence,
then attempted 70 chow that there was no ap-
preparation for the payment OF the claim. but
being unable to produce the witnessed BY whom
they expected to prove the want OF sufficient ap-
preparation they were obliged to Withdraw Juror
and pay the plaintiffs coats. Although this ques-
