Citations

  • 51 Ill. 170

Syllabus

<p>1. Interest—unreasonable and vexatious delay of ya/yment. In an action to recover for the value of a quantity of corn loaned by the plaintiff to the defendant, interest is recoverable only upon the ground that there has been an unreasonable and vexatious delay of payment.</p> <p>2. Same—question of law or foot. And in such case, it is error for the court to instruct the jury that they may allow interest, because the question, whether there has been an unreasonable and vexatious delay of payment, is one of fact for the jury.</p>
