    Wallis Waters v. James Guthrie.
    Before Mr. Justice Gantt, at Chester, Fall Term, 1830.
    In an action for slander, his Honor refused permission to the defendant to plead a justification, after the case had gone to the jury ; and upon appeal, á motion for a new trial on this ground was refused.
   Per curiam.

The refusal of the presiding Judge was clearly correct: Nothing could have been better calculated to surprise or delay the plaintiff.

Motion refused.
