The appellees have filed an objection to the costs claimed by the appellants (Haughton v. Bilson, ante, page 129), on the ground that the abstract was unnecessarily prolix and that the rate charged for printing it was excessive. The charge per page is found to be reasonable, but we think by proper condensation the size of the document could have been reduced by at least one-third. A reduction of one-third will therefore be made from that item of -costs.
