Pee Cue.

In this action you can recover mesne profits only since the demise laid, and the evidence is inadmissible.

2d. The Chief Justice charged the jury, that in assessing the mesne profits, they might include in the damages all the plaintiff’s reasonable and necessary expenses. [467] The fee of the counsel of the plaintiff was included in their estimate.

Note — In this case the mesne profits were recovered in the action of ejectment.
