The Chancellor.

The defendant in this case is not entitled to costs. The complainant was entitled to the discovery wuthout suit, as it was material to the maintenance of his rights at law. And it having been refused by the defendant without any sufficient excuse, and the complainant having obtained it by the aid of this court, the defendant must bear his own costs of the answer and of his other proceedings in this suit. Order accordingly.
