Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court · Decided November 10, 1876
121 Mass. 293; 1876 Mass. LEXIS 357

Higgins v. Andrews

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

The order of proof was in the discretion of the court. The evidence objected to does not appear to have been admitted for any other purpose than to show that the plaintiff had money which he might have lent to the defendants. If the defendants denied that the plaintiff had such money, this evidence was competent. If not, it was immaterial. The bill of exceptions does not show that the defendants could have been prejudiced by its admission. Exceptions overruled.
