Claim for $27.25, balance of wages.
This case was taken up on adjournment from the 9th inst. On that day defendant had first denied but afterwards admitted the claim, as represented by plaintiff in accounts which his Worship had gone through very minutely, the ultimate defence being that plaintiff had in'course of work taken away tools worth $20, which he had not returned.
This the plaintiff denied, but his Worship said it did not immediately concern the claim for wages as brought in that Court, og, in the absence of a special agreement to that effect, speci no set off of that nature could be allowed. Judgment would be for plaintiff for amount claimed, which should be held in Court pend ing the decision of the Mixed Court as to the tools, defendant alleging it to be his intention to proceed against plaintiff in that Court, villy and criminally. If no action was entered at the Mixed Court within a week the money would be paid out to plaintiff, but if within that time an action was brought the
until the Mixed Court adjudicate money, would be held by the Supreme Court
