The counsel for detendant prayed the court to instruct the jury that if they should find from the evidence that the first time the note was passed for value was when it was passe1 to plaintif, and he advanced for it a less sum than the face of the note, then he was entitled to re- cover ouly the amount advanced, without pay. The court refused to grant this instruction, and defendant excepted. ‘The court then ia- structed the Jary that the plaintit! was entitied torecover what he advanced for the note, with interest from the date of the note. An éxce)- tion was also taken to this instruction. Defendants’ points are, 1. By the usury law in force in this District prior to April 22, 1570, “ vonds, contracts and assurances” for the pay- ment of more than six per cent. interest were “utterly void.” On the date above given the act of Congress was passed allowing ten per cent. interest to be contracted for in writing, snd providing that any person contracting to receive above that rate shall forfeit the whole interest contracted to be received, and shall be liquor dealers asso- bution of the expenses, B7-One letter writer in the Beocher-Tilton " | series dosen't seem to wish that ahe were dead. entitled only to recover the principal sam due. To lend $415 or $460 and to take for it a note for $500, wing interest at the rate of ten per cent. per anuum, is certainly usurious, and un- der the old law would render the contract ‘ut- brcin void,” while under the present law the lender forteits all interest, aad can recover erly the principal sum due, which is “not the face of the note, bat the sum lent. The instruction requested was to the effect that if the note was first passed for valne to the plaintiff, and for leas than ite face, it became tainted with usury, and the plaintitt could only recover the sum lent, which position is sastained by the following, among numerous authorities. 2. The note in question does not cali for in- terest at the rate of ten percent. per annum until paid, yet the instruction of the court caused the jury torender their verdict for interest at that rate, not ouly from the date of the note until its rsturity, but until the payment of the judzment.
