Head Matter:
MESSICK CARPENTAR’S LESSEE v. REUBEN RATCLIFF.
Court of Common Pleas.
April 28, 1798.
Wilson’s Red Book, 201.

Opinion:
Johns, J.
The great doubt with me is whether this would be an amendment or an alteration.
The Court opened the following cases: 2 Cromp. 198, 2 Str. 1211, and Runn.Eject. 104,105, which were not read, but obtained by me from Johns, J.
The Court, discovering the matter was agreed at the bar, gave no opinion. Plaintiff paid the whole costs, gave a term's delay, and had leave by consent to amend in omnibus.
