New York Supreme Court · decided 1846-06-15
Motion by plaintiff for a reference. Plaintiff’s affidavit stated that the action was assumpsit; the declaration contained three counts, and declared for work, labor and services, in carrying for the defendant, *at his request, a quantity of flour and ashes, from the city of Buffalo to the city of Troy. The plea was the general issue, and the trial of the cause would require the examination of a long account on the part of the plaintiff.
