Gracie v. The Mary'd. Ins. Comp'y
Opinion
8 Cranch 84
3 L.Ed. 495
GRACIE
v.
THE MARY'D. INS. COMP'Y.
Feb. Term, 1814
This case differs from that against the Marine Insurance
Company of Baltimore* only in one particular. A part of the cargo
remained on board the ship until the arrival of the French troops
when the departure of the vessel was prohibited by the general and
the ransom made.
This circumstance does not, in the opinion of the Court, vary
the case; because, omitting all other considerations, the loss, within the risk, being on only a part of the cargo, is a partial loss, and is affected by the warranty against particular average loss.
This judgment is also to be affirmed with costs.
