Opinion
The case is too plain for argu-. merit. The jury did not intend to find a general verdict; but to submit the points of law to the Court. If the law had been for the Plaintiffs the Court could only have awarded a venire de novo. The facts ought to hq-ve appeared, so that the judgment might have been either reversed or affirmed upon the merits.
Judgment reversed, and a neid trial awarded.
