Mrß. Beethiun, S.M., gave judgment for tbe plaintiffs, by default, in the following' cases:—Lin-wood Borough ' Cuncil v G. Glermie, £1 13s lid; City Council v Mrs Denson, £5 17s 8d; A. "G. Healing and Co. v S. E. Wright, £20. JUDGMENT. His Worship gave judgment in the case of H. E. Boardman v Ellen Cresswell, being a claim for £24 19s 6d, representing tbree different debts assigned by Andrew STvanston, H. A. Beauchamp, and Milner and Thompson, to the plaintiff. -Tbe in his judgment, eaid ttat the question for ' consideration was whether the plaintiff could recover from the defendant the debt assigned to him by Milner and Thompson. Whatever arrangements niiplit have been made us regards tike piano between the defendant Eusself. and Boardman- could not affect tha debt of the defendant to Milner and Thompson. That debt had been, co far as he could see, legally assigned to Boardman, «nd, in Ims opinion he could recover. There was no question as to the rent due by the defendiint to Swanston, which, had also been assigned to Boardman. Beauchamp's debt being abandoned, he would give judgment for the plaintiff for £16 lls 6d. The judgment for £15, already signed, in tibs case of Cresswell v Boardman, ■would be set off against the present judgment. Mr Widdovraon appeared for Boardman, and Mr Francis, for Mr Donnelly, for the defendant.
