Supreme Court of Connecticut July 15, 1831 (Wattles v. Hyde)

Daggett, J.

An objection was taken to the charge of the judge on two points in respect to damages.

1. The plaintiff insisted, that he had a right to recover the sum of 175 dollars, as the price of a certain parcel of land, sold by the executor, in Middletown, under an order of the court of probate ; and that the executor had not accounted for the money.
