Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas·Decided January 15, 1784·Published·Cited by 14 cases

Opinion

The Court,

in charging the jury, told them, that this was a very wanton outrage upon a stranger in the country. That notwithstanding it was called a frolic, yet the proceedings appeared to be the result of a combination, which wrought a very serious injury to the plaintiff, and such a one as entitled him to very exemplary damages, especially from a professional character, who could not plead ignorance of the operation and powerful effects of this medicine.

Verdict for plaintiff, 400/. damages.
