Carver and Pierce.
Mich. 23 Car. Banc. Reg.
THe Case between Carver and Pierce was again moved by Hales,* 1.1 wher∣in it was moved formerly in arrest of Iudgement that these words Thou art a theef, and hast stolen my dung are not actionable: That the words are actionable for these reasons 1. The first words are actiona∣ble, and the second words are accumulative, and aggravate the former words, and do not mitigate them. 2. It may be felony to steal dung, and the violence of the words do enforce it to be so intended. Bacon Iustice, I hold that Iudgement is to be given for the Plaintiff, and so it was for these words, thou art a theef, and hast stolen my Corn. Roll Iustice was of the same opinion, and said that the second words are not violent enough to allay the first words, and are not explanatory, and by way of mitigation; for the words are not, for thou hast, but they are, and thou hast stollen my dung. Iudgement was given for the Plaintiff▪ antea.
