THE JURY GAVE Ml A VERDICT
S. B. Mott, Assignee of the Hyde
Park Bank, Sued C. P. Jadwin to
Recover on a Note Jury Returned
Verdict for Full Amount of tho Note
with Interest Jury in the Ward
Case Returns a Sealed Verdict.
The case of Peter Lntz against John
Brown for the recovery of tho valno of
a horse was tried before Judge Ed
wards in court room No. 1 yesterday.
The allegation was that during the
summer of 1800 Brown agreed to Bell
Lutz a bay horse or a gray hone and
carriage for $185, The money was
paid with the understanding that Lutz
was to have a week in wnich to decide
ns to which horso he would take. The
bay horse wub first tested nnd, not
proving satisfactory, the gray was next
titlrnn fiir friul Tim latter nrnvtfd lees
Qnr.iaPpntnv atlll nnd Mr T.iit?. Irvitrhim
hack and asked for tho hay, hut Mr.
Brown refused to allow the exchange
to be made. Then Lutz demanded the
bay horso or the return of tho money
and wus run oil tho premises for his
trouble.
Attornovs Newcomb and BertUolf
appeared for the plaintiff and Attor
noy James Mahon represented the de
fense. Tho defense was that Lntz in
exchanging tho hordes had made a
trade and must abldo by it. After the
evidence had been submitted and the
case duly argued it was submitted to
the jury who found tor the plaintiff in
the sum of $5110.70-
SUIT ON A NOTE.
Before Judgo Schuyler the case of S.
B. Mott, assignee, uguinat C. P. Jad
win, was tried yesterday. The plaintiff
was represented by Attorney John E
Scragg and Edward Merrifield, and At
torneys W. Gaylord Thouia and C.
Comegys plead tho defendant's cause.
The suit was brought to recover tho
vain?) of a note of 750 given by tho de
fendant to W. H. Harford, who after
ward assigned it to tho bank. The note
was given in 1H70 nnd with interest
now amounts to over 1,000. Thi note,
with others, wus afterward given to
the First National bunk as security for
a loan of $G,000, but whs returned to
the Hyde Park bank whon tho loan wus
paid back.
The dsfense was that Mr. Jadwin
nevor received any value for the note;
that it was signed when the bank was
hard up, merely as un accommodation
to help tho institution to weather its
financial trouble. When in the bands
of the First National bank, Mr. Jad
win admittod that it was good uguinst
himself, but that it lost nil value when
it was roturned to the Hyde Park bank.
The plaintiff's, however, claimed that
value was rcceivod by Mr. Jadwin.
Nearly tho entire day was taken with
the evidence and the arguments of the
lawyers. It did not take the jury long
to arrive at a decision in favor of the
nluintir ; for full amount of tho note
with interest from date.

jury at 11.30 o'clock. They agreed upon
a verdict at 2 30 in tho afternoon, but
