Samuel Blatchford

“ We are of opinion that the goods composed of worsted and India rubber were dutiable as gorings at 30 cents per pound, and, in addition thereto, 50 per cent. ad valorem, if they were known in this country, in trade and commerce, under the specific name of 'goring;' that whether they were or not so known was, on the evidence, a question for the jury; that the court erred in not submitting that question to the jury; that the goods composed of cotton, silk, and India rubber were subject to a duty of 35 per cent. ad valorem; and that the court erred in directing a verdict for the plaintiffs. ”

“ There was a verdict for the plaintiffs for $157.08 as to certain of the goods, and for the defendant as to certain others of them; whereupon a judgment was entered for the plaintiffs for $157.08 damages, $46.85 costs, and $6.67 interest, making in all $210.60. To review that judgment the defendant has sued out a writ of error. ”
