Brotherston and Another had insured Fanny's cargo against loss. Barber was the insurer. Brotherston claimed that he was due the full sum insured as a total loss. At the time of the claim this was the case and he had abandoned all rights to the vessel. The court found that the plaintiffs were only due a partial loss.Cases argued and determined in the Court of King's Bench, Vol V, George Maule & William Selwyn, London 1823, p418
