March v. Putney

March v. Putney
Supreme Court of New Hampshire · Decided December 14, 1875 · Cushing, Ladd, Stanley
56 N.H. 226; 1875 N.H. LEXIS 37

March v. Putney

Opinion of the Court

* Cushing, C. J.

It seems clear to me that by this contract the deintended and expected to guarantee the payment for goods to be sold after its execution, and not otherwise. The report of the referee does not find the fact that the goods were delivered after the execution of the guaranty. It is not the province of this court to find the facts, and if it were so, I should infer from the report that these goods were delivered before the execution of the guaranty.

Unless, therefore, the plaintiff can have the report recommitted, for the purpose of determining this, and other facts desired in the court below, there must be

Judgment for the defendant.

Ladd, J., and Stanley, J., C. C., concurred.
*

Smith, J., did not sit.
