Supreme Court of Pennsylvania March 15, 1843 (Fereira v. Sayres)

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Rogers, J.

Whether there was a hiring for a year, was a fact for the jury, and if the decision of that question was taken from them, it was erroneous. But the presumption is that the court have not violated so plain a rule of law; therefore he who alleges it is bound to prove it- by the record itself.
