Case No. 659.

The AURORA.
CURRY v. The AURORA.

Superior Court, S. D. Florida.

Nov. 28, 1840.

SALVAGE—COMPENSATION—FORFEITURE.

[Cited in Marv. Wr. & Salv. 232, as having held that where wreckers had unnecessarily lightened the bark of 205 bales of cotton, in order to magnify their services and obtain a larger salvage than that to which they were justly entitled, their whole salvage should be forfeited, notwithstanding they had rendered important services.]

[Note. Nowhere reported; opinion by MARVIN, J., not now accessible.]
