A Sheep Dealing Case.

CLAIM FOB DAMAGES FOU NON DELIVERY

AN IMPORTANT JUDGMENT.

AS the Supreme Ooatb, Ohristohnroh. ii Chambers, on Tuesday, his Honour Mr Jus tice Daaulsboa gave jadgman. in bhe case Dalgoby and Company and another v Robert Litter, an appeal from the deolaioa of the Stipendiary Magistrals In aa action to? damages broughb by Mr tatter ag-kinsb MeestaD.lgeby and Company for 3- p-*r haai on 1000 sheep, whioh Dalge y aod"0-)inp .ny had failil bo deliver to him.

Th 6 faoba were, briefly, that on Nov.-nb-.r _.9.b, 1800, tha preaant appellant.* o ..fl -m < l the aale to bhß reaponteat of 1000 b*o tio.h ©wee from Tu.ir* Station, a 1) lis 31. f o.b Spib (Napte?)

This oominunio„-jio i wm d*tsd March 8tb 9 1901, and Mr Layer Immediately .replied that) he had sold th" ew«l on tho deaariptioa of the appall-nts, at_£ abating that tha oontraoo mu=ih bo com pleijed. 10. rep y to ihe appellants the reapoadeub .bated that he oUimed 2a par head, and tho second purchaser la p«jr haa<3, for noa-delivery, Tha appellants than asked Mr Litter to writs them, asking ford.livery of tha aheep, or 3i par head. On April 3 d Mr Latber'u solicit >r wrote, claiming £1150 from the appellants on account, of tbe non delivery of tha sheep.- Th© M» _ia'rate h»d treated tha appellants' letter of Maroh ?.lao aa practically aooeptin. the respondeub'a claim of 3a par he*d. His Honour, in bhe oourse of his judg ment ,Qmaiderad that bhe last mentioned oonbantiion oould only be supported by an agreemenb balng shown by appellant's ao oepbipg liability in consideration of the repandanb aooepfcing £150 as damages There was nothing to show thab suoh an agreemenb existed, an. It would be an un businesslike tranaaatioa for a firm bo oomnvt themselves to a client's ea.lnß.te of damage. Respondent had made no olalm till April 3rd, and nothing had been shown bhab be had .paid, or was liable bo p y, any aum for damages on his re-sale. Ib was reasonable bo assume that In bhe oaae of bhe sale of aheep to a sheep dealer far forward delivery, tho seller know, thab bhey are bought with bhe iabeation of re-iale, and bhab io the event of breach of oonbraot tho seller oonbraots bo be ll»b!e for bhe In creased damages whioh will follow, and. applying the rule laid down in Hadley v Bax-ndall (9 Bxoh., p 341), those damages may be supposed bo be within the coitom platton of the pirtiea. Ia this case the respondent abated thab he oould nob obtain aheep to replaoa those he had sold, as ib wa< assasibial to 'have Tutlra sheep. Oa th* other hand, the contract did nob specify an? particular sheep, and the person he reaol-l them feo had abated in tho lower oonrb than he v only wanted good shsep, and did no' care where bhey came from," oonsequetitlv tha oontraob would have besa fulfilled by the delivery of shsfip of that description.. -_ Dealing with bhe question of damaKfis, 1 his Honour pointed oub that respondent bad nob claimed delivery till March llbh, and thai he oould nob have delivered to the' person he resold to bill tnu.h laber, whea sheep had admittedly fallen in price from thab ruling, oa January 3rd. Therefore, the inference re dan_»ges would bs the oblis* way. He referred to the rule ac to general damages stated in •Benjamin on Sales,' p. 903, .oshow bh%' the propar measure of damigei in general <s the difference bebween tho crabraoii prio. and the markeb price ab bhe bime when bho oontraob is broken* The respondent h*d nob attempted to give evidence on whioh damages could ba calculated, and hi« Honour saw no apeaial o.reumsbir.oeß which would take the ca.a out of the geaer-1 rule He held thab the respondent) had given no evidence of any actual, dvm *g*s recoverable a. law, and that, oa the oontrary, ths appellants bad shown bhab ha miff^red note The Mspondenb ihonH have jidgnvmb for nominal damages, 40), or, if he preferred it. should be non.als»d with oc/9fcß, Cab. of appeal £10 10s Sir Hall and Mr 8 ring r appeared for the appellant), aud Mr Hsrper and Mr U-nde for b'le reepoDd^nt.

Another Victim ; TO the Enervation Heat of Summer. The Case of MtTm. RANDALL. (By a Napier Reporter.) Mr. Magnus Randall was seen by our representative at the former's residence ia Wughorue-street, Napier. "Have you any objection to giving me tha facts concerning your remarkable experience?" •'None whatever," replied Mr. Kan dall. "I am glad of the opportunity, as my testimony may come under the notice of some other sufferer who can d.r.ve benefit in the same manner that I have done." . "What was your complaint t "Well, I had so many ailments that I can hardly give you a definite answer; but the cause of the whole of my long sickness was through a terrible derange ment of my digestive organs. I waa living in Melbourne when first attacked, and 1 attribute my illness to the ener vating heat which prevails there ©very summer. My food turned on me after every meal. Everything I ate lay in a heavy, solid lump in my stomach, mak ing me s feci dreadfully uncomfortable, and too indolent to move. Dull, op pressive pains in the chest indicated that my food was not digesting; then violent headaches came on. lam an inveterate reader, but my eyesight was now very bad, and the throbbing pains in my head made reading useless, as I oould not concentrate my attention on the subject matter of a book. *» Sharp twitches of agony appeared under the shoulder blades, making me very rest less and irritable. I used to go home after a day's work feeling exhausted aud knocked out; but I could not sleep at night. Every morning I arose with aching limb 1?, feeling more languid and depressed than the day before. A feel ing of melancholia was upon me, and I could not arouse enthusiasm for any thing. My bowels were also_ out of or der. I was very irregular in that re spect, being constipated for days, with subsequent attacks of diarrhoea. The lower part of my right side was extreme ly tender, the least pressure producing great pain. I had a bad taste in my mouth, which made everything nauseous to the palate, although in course of time this did not prove a great hardship as I had completely lost my appetite." "How did you get on without eat ing?" "Very badly indeed, I got thinner and weaker every day, and felt fatigued before I started out from home. 1 looked the picture of misery, and I felt a. dejected as I looked. My face was white and pinched, and my hollow cheeks showed that my constitution waf undermined with my complaint, which at length upset my nervous system to such an extent that my nerves started trembling and shaking at the least noise." "Were you in this state very long?" "About twelve months altogether, and as I had taken a great number of ali kinds of medicines without receiving any benefit, I began to think that my suf ferings were going to last for ever." "You . were apparently deceived iv that conjecture." "I was, lam thankful to say. My habit of looking at everything readable accounted for my release from life-lonj. suffering. > A description of a gentle man's cure from the same distressing complaint as mine came under my notio. through perusing a pamphlet. He was cured by Clements Tonic after a long illness, so I thought there might b© a chance for myself, I bought several bottles of Clements Tonic, and it w.-u the best purchase I ever made. P acted like magic on my enfeebled anr debilitated system. A few doses o: Clements Tonic removed the feeling ot tightness in my chest after eating (whicl I did very heartily after each dose), be sides relieving me of the discomfort and pain in my stomach. My bowels werf regulated and my head became clear and free from sickening aches. The excru ciating agonies disappeared from mj shoulders and ribs, my nerves wer« soothed and toned up, and I slept splen didly and awoke refreshed and energetio My strength came back rapidly, and mj weight increased every day. I felt borr anew. Clements Tonic did its work thoroughly removing every symptom oi my complaint, and my_ health has beer grand all these years since I was cured. Clements Tonic is a wonderful medicine, and my experience teaches me that it v the one remedy that can always bo de pended upon. In any way you like jnv may publish these facts."
