Long v. Oneale

Cranch, J.,

was of opinion that the instruction prayed by Mr. Key ought to be given; but Kilty, C. J., being of a different opinion, and Fitzhugh, J., being absent, the instruction was not given.

The defendant took a bill of exceptions, and upon a writ of error, the judgment was reversed by the Supreme Court of the United States. See 4 Cranch, 60.
