Bill for L.100 sterling, given by a man when he was intoxicated with drink, to a young woman, as a penalty in case he did not marry her, was not sustained; but afterwards sustained twice by the President's casting vote; the last time was, when there were four absent. Affirmed in Parliament. (See Dict. No. 60. p. 9511.)
