Christ v. Baker

17 Leg. Int. 332 | U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Eastern Pennsylvania | 1860

GRIER, Circuit Justice,

decided that the •commercial meaning of the word “blanket” was to be traced back only to the time of the passage of the act of 1857. The schedules of the act of 1846 were referred to in the act of 1857 merely to save the trouble of transcribing the list of articles therein mentioned. A verdict was therefore rendered for the plaintiffs for $719.08
