Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court September 15, 1847 (Moody v. Wright)

Dewey, J.

The positions taken by the opposing counsel have been fully and ably presented, in their respective arguments ; but, in the view we have taken of the case, it has become unnecessary to express any opinion upon several of the points raised. We have directed our attention more particularly to one, which is a leading and material one, and decisive of the case.
