Covenant for payment of rent of andpound;20 per annum, for four years and a half; and for non-payment of andpound;100 according to the said covenant, the action is brought: adjudged good, and affirmed in error: for in covenant damages only are to be recovered and this surplus in miscomputing shall be abated : it is otherwise in debt for rent, where more is demanded than is due; for in this case the debt demanded only, is to be recovered.
