The opinion OF the appellate division of
the supreme court in the case OF William
X. Bowen VS.. Robert III. White ct al. was
handed down by Judge Douglas today.
This is an action TO recover damages for

and Robert IL. White and j. b. lie Baron,
as sureties to secure the performance OF a
certain agreement under seal between
the plaintiff and the defendant Edward /.
White binding the parties to furnish and
receive certain quantities OF ice.
Robert III. White was the only one of
the defendants served with process as the
others were without the jurisdiction
The pleas were that the plaintiff refused
to perform his part of the agreement
whereby the defendant, Edward /. White,
was excused from performing his part.
that the plaintiff refused to accept a cer-
tain large quantity OF fee whereby the de-
fendant. Edward l. White. was discharged
from the obligation of the argument.
Plaintiff traversed the first plea and con-
cluded to the contrary. To the second plea
he replied that the Ice alleged to have
been shipped was of an inferior quality to
that called for by the agreement and con-
cluded with a verification. The parties
were at Issue upon the first plea and the
second replication.
The Jury found that the defendant,
owe in manner and form as the plaintiff
has In his declaration thereof complain
ed against him and assess damages for
the plaintiff In the sum of $500 The
defendant thereupon moved in arrest OF
Judgment on the grounds that the only
breaches assigned in the declaration are
breaches OF the condition I'm the board
and that no breach OF the covenant to
pay the board is assigned, that the YER
dict was wrong I'm form I'm that II did
not find that the covenant TO pay the
personal amount OF the board was
broken. and that It illegally assessed
damages and attempted To chancerize the
bond. Later n new trial was asked for
on the ground that Ie verdict was
against the evidence and because OF er-
ror In rulings and In charge to the jury.
Judge Douglas finds against the first
ground but finds the objection 10 the
verdict we'll taken. 1T does not decide
the issues which arose upon the pleadings
and 70 proceeds I'm violation OF the statute
to chancerlze the bond before judgment"
The verdict Is held irresponsible TO the is
sues and the case Is sent back for
new trial to the common pleas division
