Young v. Black

The Court,

upon the prayer of Mr. Swann, for the defendant, decided (nem. con.) that the plaintiffs, Young and Beblois, could not recover without evidence of an express promise to pay them their proportion of the damages for the breaches alleged. And that the orders, &c. were not evidence of such express promise, nor were they evidence on either of the three last counts. The plaintiffs became nonsuit.
