Supreme Court of Vermont February 15, 1844 (Fullam v. Cummings)

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Royce, J.

This case is brought here on exceptions to the charge of the judge. The charge, in substance, was, that if the plaintiff owned the paper in question, and it was of any value, he was entitled to recover such value with the interest; but if he did not own it, or if it was of no value, he could not recover.
