Opinion

Curia, per

Richardson, J.

held that a verdict otherwise, satisfactory should not be set aside upon so obvious a mistake in terms only. If a new trial were allowed, the court would [12]*12also have to give the defendant leave to correct the arithmetical error in his plea and lay his demand at $1000 instead of $900; which would place the parties exactly where they now stood under the verdict.

Choice, for the motion; Henry 4" Bobo, contra.

Motion dismissed;

the whole court concurring.
