Saturday 04 Sep 1819 (p. 1, col. 5-6 and p. 4, col. 1-6) CARLISLE ASSIZES, 1819. BEFORE MR. JUSTICE BAYLEY. [continued] MOORE v. NIXON.—In this cause a verdict was given for the plaintiff, £6 11s. We stated, in our last, that this sum was "the result of an arbitration. An attempt was made by the defendant to do away with this arbitration, on the ground that one of the arbitrators had not consented; and also to prove that five pounds had been paid. It was the opinion of Mr. Justice BAYLEY, that this endeavour completely failed. The Jury were of the same mind." A Correspondent informs us that we were incorrect as it respects the opinion of the judge. He says—"The Judge, in his summing up, expressed no conviction of the defendant having failed in making out what he contended for. On the contrary, the bias of his mind seemed to be, that the £5 mentioned by the witnesses, and proved by one them to have been paid, should be deducted from the £6 11s., and that a verdict should be given for the balance. But he distinctly told the Jury that there were two questions to try: 1, Whether there was an award, which one of the arbitrators swore there was, and the other that there was not, leaving the point doubtful. 2, Whether the money claimed had not been paid: and certainly the defendant proved the payment of £5, part of the £6 11s.—the rest was for stones which the deceased MOORE had given up all claim to in NIXON's favour."—We have mislaid our notes, and therefore cannot refer to them. We dare say that our correspondent is correct. The verdict, however, as we stated, was given for the plaintiff, for the whole sum demanded, £6 11s. P. HODGSON v. BARWISE.—We stated, last week, that a juror was withdrawn in this cause, (relating the amount of Steward's Fees in Holm Cultram,) and that the question is set at rest. We have now the words of the decision as agreed to and signed by the respective leading counsel, Mr. RAINE and Mr. SCARLETT:—"By consent, a Juror to be withdrawn, the plaintiff undertaking to bring no action against the defendants or any other tenant for fees; and to accept the old fees, which they undertake to pay him.—(Signed) J. R.—J. S."
