Stevens v. Sharp
Stevens v. Sharp
26 Ill. 404
Stevens v. Sharp
Opinion of the Court
This judgment was correct upon the agreed state of facts, and should undoubtedly be affirmed. The bet was clearly against the statute as well as the common law, and the plaintiff was entiled to recover the money back from the stake-holder. Indeed, we can hardly be persuaded that the case is not brought here solely to gain time.
The judgment is affirmed. Judgment affirmed.
