182 Mass. 572; 66 N.E. 196; 1903 Mass. LEXIS 916

Shattuck v. Marcus

Opinion of the Court

Lathrop, J.

If the declarations in these cases are to be construed, as the defendants contend, as each containing only one count, which embraces two causes of action, and so are in violation of the Pub. Sts. c. 167, § 2, cl. 4, the-objection should have been taken by demurrer. Clay v. Brigham, 8 Gray, 161. Downs v. Hawley, 112 Mass. 237, 241.

The exceptions are frivolous, and are overruled with double costs, and interest at twelve per cent.

So ordered.
