defendants, and that the back warp was put on for the purpose of concealing the invasion, and put on for the purpose of making it appear that it was an entire new method of his own.

The jury retired at a quarter to three o'clock, and during their absence,

Mr. Erle said, I understand, my Lord, we have leave to enter a verdict?

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-I am writing down what I have just told the jury, that you are to have leave to enter a verdict.

Mr. Erle. The motion I made was, with respect to the specification not being in conformity.

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-That it was not sufficient? Mr. Erle.-Not sufficient in respect to the cloth being a single cloth.

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-I think, if the specification is insufficient, then you ought to have leave to enter a verdict, because the evidence cannot alter that.

Mr. Erle.-I mean insufficient according to the evidence, that the cloth was a single cloth.

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-You must take the evidence according to the subject matter of it. I don't understand that that patent might not be applied to a double cloth. You may put anything else at the back of it you like, because that is involving the question of your piracy. I take the meaning of Mr. Carpmael's evidence to that to be as plain as possible; he means, it is essential on the part of the plaintiff to produce in a single cloth that plaited face, or two plaited faces. If you choose to weave something else at the back of it, you may do so; that is a different question.

Mr. Sergeant Channell.-On the question whether the plaintiff's invention is anything of a new manufacture?

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-If the Court say it was not, you ought to have a verdict.

Mr. Jervis.-The point arose on the demurrer.

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-I suppose they did not argue that?

Mr. Sergeant Channell.-No; it was on quite a different point.

Mr. Justice Cresswell.-Verdict for the plaintiff now: leave to move for a verdict on the eighth issue.

The jury, after an absence of ten minutes, returned;

when

The Foreman said, My Lord, our verdict is for the plaintiff.

Verdict for the plaintiff.

Mr. Jervis.-Your Lordship will please to certify the validity of the patent in question, and for a special jury. Mr. Justice Cresswell.-O, certainly.
