afterwards Immediately Came thereof the Jury &a and the Jurors of that Same Jury by Joseph McClester
Gent sheriffe of the County afd to this Impannelled being Called Came to witt Robert Jones Joseph Wailes
Christopher Nutter Angello Atkinson William Porter, Thomas Peal, Thomas Winder Jonathan Sturges
John Reddish Charles Townsend John Roach Benjamin Townsend who to say the truth of the premises
afd being duely Elected tryed and sworn upon their Oath do say that the afd Nathaniel Brittingham is guilty
of the premisses afd in manner and form as the afd Thomas Lambden above against him hath Complained
and assessed the damages of the same Thomas by Occasion of the premisses afd further than his Costs &
Charges by him about his suit in that part apposed to tenn pounds Curr.t money of Maryland and for

1:  for that it is Said by the plft in his declaration that the words therein Alledged to be Spoken
by the deft are Charged to be Spoken to the plft in the second person and by Every Evidence
upon the tryall what words were proven appeared to be spoken only of the plft & in his
absence            2:  that there is neither time or place of Speaking the words Laid in the
declaration        3  that the words Laid in the declaration are not actionable

    Whereupon all and Singular the premisses being seen and by the Court now here fully understood and
