Where the defendant ordered A. to pay the plaintiff 7. 12s.. and the clerk of the plaintiff's attorney demanded 8., on which 4. said that he was only ordered to pay 7. 128. which sum was in the hands of B., and B. put his hand to his pocket with a view of pulling out his pocket-book, to pay 7. 12s., but did not do so by the desire of A.; but B. could not say whether he had that sum about him, but swore that he had it in his house, at the door of which he was standing at the time :-Heid, that this was not a legal tender; as the money should have been produced to the attorney's clerk. Kraus v. Arnold, E. 3 G. 4. TITHES. See INQUIRY, WRIT OF. PRACTICE, 8. Page 59 The plaintiff has his option to issue a writ of inquiry or not, in an action of debt, founded on the stat. 2 and 3 Edw. 6, c. 13, brought to recover the treble value of tithes ; and where, in such an action, the declaration contained a count for treble value, and other counts for tithes bargained and sold, and on an account stated; and the defendant suffered judgment by default, and the jury on a writ of inquiry, assessed the plaintiff's damages at 17. 48. 9d. on the first count, for the treble value, and 9. for the single value on the other counts, but omitted to find costs, the Court ordered the return of the inquisition to be amended, by the insertion of nominal damages as to the last counts, on which costs de incremento night be added.

Dale v. Wood, E. 3 G. 4. 33 2. Where the tenant of a house, after a regular notice to quit, abandoned the premises, and locked the door, and left only a few articles of furniture therein; and the landlord afterwards, in his absence, and when no person was in the house, broke open the door and took possession: -Held, that he was justified in so doing, as he had a legal right of entry and it seems that the tenant cannot maintain trespass a gainst him; but that his remedy, if any, is by an indictment for a forcible entry. Turner v. Meymott, (Gent.) H. 3 & 4 G. 4. Page 574 TROVER. See INSPECTION OF PAPERS, 1. Where, in trover against an auctioneer, for having sold the plaintiff's goods under a commission of bankruptcy, which was afterwards superseded, one of the plaintiff's witnesses, on cross-examination, said, that he had heard the plaintiff say, that he had been discharged under the Lords' Act since the sale-Held, that such admission being a matter of law as well as fact, was not conclusive to impeach the plaintiff's title to sue the defendant, as the latter should have produced the assignment, or shewn that the requisites of that statute had been complied with, so as to entitle the plaintiff to his legal discharge. Summersett v. Adamson, USE AND OCCUPATION. Where a house was devised to a trustee, in trust for a devisee, for her sole and absolute use, and she afterwards married B. who let part of it under a written agreement signed by himself only, to the defendant, as a yearly tenant, and afterwards granted a lease for years of the whole of the house to the plaintiff, which the wife refused to execute, although she was named therein; and the defendant had notice of the lease, and was required to pay 1. Growing crops may be considered in the nature of goods and chattels, under the statute 11 Geo. 2, c. 19, as they may be distrained in the same manner as articles of the latter description: Where, therefore, the condition of a replevin bond was, that the defendant should prosecute his action with effect against the plaintiff for taking and detaining his goods, chattels, and growing crops; and in the declaration the bond was set out as conditioned to prosecute with effect for taking and detaining the goods and chattels in the said condition mentioned :—Held, that this was no variance. v. Coles, T. 3 G. 4. Glover 231 2. Where a count of a declaration in assumpsit against a carrier by water, alleged, that in consideration that the plaintiff, at the request of the defendant, had caused to be shipped on board the defendant's vessel a quantity of wheat, to be carried to a certain place for freight to be therefore paid to the defendant, he undertook to carry the wheat safely, and deliver it for the plaintiff on a given day but it appeared that the defendant's undertaking to carry was made before the whole of the wheat had been shipped on board his vessel; -Held, that the count might be supported, although it was objected that the consideration for the promise was executory. Streeter v. Horlock, T. 3 G. 4. Page 283 3. Where, in a declaration of trover, a deed was described as a certain deed of assignment, purporting to be made between J. S. of the one part, and W. R. of the other part, and purporting to be a conveyance from J. S. to W. R. of certain tenements therein mentioned: and on the production of the deed, it appeared to be a conveyance by lease and release between the same parties:-Held to be no variance, and that it was sufficiently described in the declaration. Harrison v. Vallance, T. 3 G. 4. 304 4. Where, in an action on the case for diverting a stream of water from the plaintiff's mills, the declaration alleged, that the defendant placed and raised a certain dam across the stream, and thereby diverted and turned the water, and prevented it from running along its usual course to the plaintiff s mill, and from supplying the same with water for the necessary working thereof, as the same of right ought, and otherwise would have done :-Held, that such allegation was supported by proof, that in consequence of the dam, the water was prevented from being regularly supplied to the plaintiff's mill, although the stream was not diverted, as the dam was erected above the mill, and the water returned to its regular course long before it reached the mill, and there was no waste of water occasioned by the erection of the dam. Shears v. Wood, M. 3 G. 4. 345 5. Where, in an action of assumpsit by three co-plaintiffs for a breach of contract, they were rightly named in the writ, but the surname of one of them was omitted by mistake in the declaration, issue, and nisi prius record, and the defendant pleaded a tender, and paid inoney into Court generally on the whole declaration, and at the trial failed to establish the tender; and the jury, after an objection had been taken as to the omission of the surname, found a verdict for the plaintiffs with nominal damages only, and leave was given them to move to increase it to the extent of their demand if the Court should be of opinion that the omission was immaterial; they discharged a rule obtained for that purpose, as the plaintiffs might have amended the pleadings and record at any time before the trial; and as they had their remedy by bringing a fresh action. Longridge v. Brewer, H. 3 & 4 G. 4. Page 522 VENIRE DE NOVO. See DAMAGES, 2. VENUE. 1. On a motion to change the venue from London to Worcester, on the usual affidavit: an affidavit, stating that the action was brought for the seduction of the plaintiff's daughter, and that she was so ill, it was not expected that she would live till the assizes, is a sufficient answer to the application. Wing v. Jenkius, E. 3 G. 4. 62 2. So, in debt on bond, the Court will not change the venue from London to Worcester, on an affidavit, stating that all the plaintiff's |
