tion that they were to be' returned within one month, freight was to be paid by Broad. The latter it was claimed, did not return the dogs in the specified time, nor did he pay the freight, wherefore Brittain claimed £l7 10/, the balance of the purchasing price. Mr Boynton said he must give judgment for Broad. The dog had been given a fair trial, and proved unsatisfactory. The trouble over the freight could have been settled ‘ by paying under protest.
