In an action of damages for defamation in respect of a speech alleged to have been made by the defender in October 1898, in which he accused the pursuer of having, while a member of the Police Commissioners of Forfar, sold hay to that body above the market price, the pursuer, who was in business as a produce merchant, averred that in consequence of the accusation “his business had greatly suffered.” The defender moved for a diligence to recover the receipts for income-tax paid by the pursuer for the last four years, and cited Johnston v. Caledonian Railway Company, December 22, 1892, 20 R. 222. The Court, without giving opinions, refused the motion.
