Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court September 16, 1946 (Whittemore v. Luftig)

Lummus, J.

In this action for the conversion of five articles of jewelry, it appears that the plaintiff permitted one Forsyth, in January and February, 1941, to pledge her jewelry with the defendant, a licensed pawnbroker, for a loan of $2,200. The defendant was told that the jewelry belonged to the plaintiff.
