Head Matter:
Perrin et al. v Lewis, appellant.
Trial—dismissal of complaint—neglect to request submission to jury.
Defendant made a draft on plaintiffs. The draft was accompanied by a bill of lading of some cheese consigned to plaintiffs. Plaintiffs accepted and paid the draft, and sold the cheese which did not bring enough to meet the draft. In an action for the deficiency, the defense was that the cheese had been sold to plaintiffs’ agent for the amount of the draft. Plaintiffs claimed to have received and sold the cheese on commission. Evidence was given tending to prove the allegations upon each side. Held, that a motion to dismiss the complaint was properly denied, and that the defendant not having requested the submission of the case to the jury, could not object on appeal to a verdict for plaintiff, found by direction of the court.
Bi&ke &-Ballou, for appellant.
B. L. Stevens, for respondent.
