Burnett v. Mitchell. This was an action by Alexander Burnett against Sir Thomas Livingstone Mitchell, to recover compensation for services performed by the plaintiff, on the defendants account. The defendant had pleaded the general issue, and had also filed a set-off to the plaintiffs claim. Mr. MICHIE appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Windeyer for the defendant. On the part of the plaintiff three witnesses were called, who proved that the former had been acting us the overseer or superintendent of some works upon Sir Thomas Mitchells establishment at East Bargo , and it was estimated by these witnesses that about 10s. per diem would be a fair rate of remuneration for his services ; but it appeared that he had drawn the rations for himself and his family from Sir Thomas Mitchells store, which it had been agreed should be paid for by the men at the rate of 2.5 per cent, above the Sydney market price. On the part of the defendant several witnesses were called, from whose testimony it appeared that the plaintiff, who had formerly been with Sir Thomas Mitchell as a prisoner of the Crown during his expedition into the interior, had made no special agreement with Sir Thomas for a fixed rate of wages, but was to have made himself generally useful on the farm, receiving his rations and such remuneration as his employer might give him. While on the farm he had not, it would appear, been very active or attentive to his employment, and was once prosecuted by Sir Thomas for stealing some wine, but was acquitted. It came out, however, that the plaintiff had been formerly employed in a similar manner in the erection of a house at Craigend. The defendants case having been closed, Mr. MICHIE contended in reply, that all the evidence which had been given with the view of shaking the plaintiffs claim could not substantially affect it, for where there was an implied agreement as in the present instance to give labour for such a rate of remuneration as the employer should in honour determine upon, he was fairly entitled to so much as his services were proved to have been worth. His Honor, after having recapitulated the leading points of the evidence, left the Jury to determine upon the facts which had been deposed to, whether the plaintiff had established his claim for remuneration beyond the rations he had already received, and if so, what amount he ought to recover. The Jury, after an absence of about three quarters of an hour, found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 75 pounds
