 JAMES BURNS, 
 
 AND 
 
 Appellant, 
 
 GEORGE BURRELL, 
 
 Respondent. 
 
 RESPONDENT'S CASE. 
 
 HE Appellant's Action in the Court below at Quebec, was an 
 
 Action of Debt for £90 currency, for use and occupation of certain appartments 
 and premisses of the Appellant. 
 
 The 1st. count states the Respondent to have used and occupied the pre- 
 misses for one year, at and for the yearly rent of £90. 
 
 The 2d. count supposes no stipulated rent, but avers the use and occupa- 
 tion for the same period, to be of th& value of £90^* y^S^^ j,..^ y V 
 
 1st. A Defense au Jonas en fdu, conlainiiuf a general denegation of the 
 Appellant's allegations in point of fact, and 2dty. a Perpetual Exception P6- 
 remptoire en Droit, by which the Respondent alledgcs his occupation of the 
 premisses in question, to have been in virtue of a Notarial Lease by him ob- 
 tained from John Graves, the Appellant's Attorney, before Mr. Belanger and 
 his colleague Notaries, according to which Lease the Respondent ought to have 
 enjoyed not only the appartments and premisses mentioned in the Appellant's 
 Declaraiion, but the tchole of the house and premisses therein mentioned, for one 
 yeaii, «' 'Ac rate of £90, and with this cvpress condition that the Respondest, 
 after the expiration of one year, might retain the premisses for another year, 
 for the same price, if the Appellant should not return to Quebec, and make 
 known to the Respondent, before the 1st. May 1816, his intention of occupying 
 the house and dependencies by himself. The Respondent further alledges that 
 the Appellant had neglected and refused to put him in possession of the entire 
 premisses described in the Lease, by means whereof the Respondent had suffer- 
 ed damage in his trade to tlie amount of £300, and tliat the Appellant was still 
 absent from this Province. 
 
 The Respondent also fyledan Incidental cross Demande, containing all the 
 allegations of the Exception, a:id adding, as a special statement of damage, that 
 in virtue of the Lease made to him by the Appellant's Attorney, the Respon- 
 dent had himself let part of those premisses to one John Parker for one year, 
 for £35, and that the Appellant and Graves his Attorney having refused to 
 put..the Respondent in possession, he had also failed in the fLliillment of his 
 Lease to Parker, who had brought his action against the Respondent and 
 recovered £25 damages, and £7 18 costs, which the Respondent had paid. 
 
 He alledged also that his intention was to have carryed on his business of 
 a Baker and Confectioner in the bake-house, which makes part of the premisses 
 let to him, and that, by the Appellant's refusal to put him in possession of it, 
 he had suffered heavy losses and sustained damage £300. 
 
 The Issues having been joined upon the Demande in chief, the parties 
 proceeded to an Enquete, and clearly proved their respective allegations. 
 
 /j The cause was then heard upon the merit/ and after a d^libere, which
