Excerpt from Reports of Cases Adjudged in the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, 1825, Vol. 6: To Which Is Added, a General Table of Cases
This was a writ of error to the Common Pleas of Lancaster country, in which Court the plaintiffs brought an action upon the case against the defendant, for having fraudulently and falsely represented a certain F. Eckstein as a man of property, integrity, &c, with a view to induce the plaintiffs to trade with him. The declaration averred that the plaintiffs, who were distillers, did in consequence of such false representation send three hogsheads of gin to Eckstein to be sold on commission, and that in consequence of his insolvency, thay suffered loss, &c.
Upon the trial of the cause, the plaintiffs, having proved that the defendant recommended Eckstein as a man of property, &c, offered in evidence, to prove the delivery of the gin to Eckstein, a letter from him to them, acknowledging the receipt of three hogsheads, the day before, which he promised to account for; but upon the defendant"s objection the court overruled the evidence, and whether the Common Pleas were right was the question.
