New York Court of Common Pleas · Decided July 15, 1863 · Daly

16 Abb. Pr. 257

Counsel

Benjamin C. Thayer, for the appellant., John C. T. Smidt, for the respondents.

Opinion of the Court

Daly, F. J.

There were but seven items in this case, under one date. Substantially, there were but two: putting in gas-pipes per contract, $54; plumbing work by contract, $80. The remainder were a few items of extras added to the plumbing work; and, with one exception, a marble top to wash-basin,. *259$10, they were trifling in amount. Within the decisions, this was not a- case for a reference. (Smith a. Brown, 3 How. Pr., 9; Swift a. Wells, 2 Ib., 79; Miller a. Hooker, Ib., 171; Parker a. Snell, 10 Wend., 577; Van Rensselaer a. Jewett, 6 Hill, 373.)

Hilton and Beady, JJ., concurred.

Order reversed.
