Atwood v. Austin

Per Curiam. The proceeding was severe and. unjust. The trial was not, in fact, delayed by the defendant; he came in time to prove the only defence which he had set. up, yiz. : payment; and he offered a witness to prove it, immediately after the plaintiff rested his cause. Judgment reversed, (a). Footnotes [(a)] Vide Sweet and another v. Coon, 15 Johns. Sep. 86.
