The plaintiff brought this action in assumpsit to recover the price ($152.98) of a car load of lumber purchased from him by the defendants. The defendants did not deny his claim for the car of lumber, but sought to set off against it a claim for damages, arising from a failure to deliver other lumber which the defendants claim to have been contracted for, by Robert K. Mann, one of their number. The learned circuit judge directed a verdict for the defendants, and judgment for $161.86 was rendered. The plaintiff has brought the case to this court by writ of error.
