Head Matter:
*Clapp against Reynolds and another.
Where the plaintiff recovers 250 dollars of debt, and damages for the detention, on a single bill, he is entitled to the full costs of this court.
The plaintiff recovered 250 dollars debt, on a single bill, and also damages, for the detention, including interest as costs. The question was whether he was entitled to full costs.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The plaintiff is entitled to full costs. The act deprives him of full costs, when he recovers a sum not exceeding 100 pounds, exclusive of costs. The recovery here exceeds that sum ; and in form as well as reality, the judgment applies to the damages as well as to the debt.
Judgment accordingly.( )
