Action upon a policy of fire insurance to recover the value of merchandise alleged to have been destroyed. After issue had been joined, upon defendant’s motion, the plaintiff was ordered to serve *970a bill of particulars. He appeals from so much of the order as requires him to state the items of property claimed to have been destroyed; the time when and place where purchased; the price paid therefor, and the value of the same at the time of the fire. It is no hardship upon the plaintiff to require him to give the defendant the information asked, if he can do so. If he cannot give defendant all the information, then he should give as much as he can, and state why he cannot give the remainder. The order appealed from, therefore, is modified by requiring the plaintiff to give the defendant the information, or so much of it as he can, as above indicated, and if he cannot give all of it, then give the reason why he cannot do so. As thus modified the order is affirmed, without costs to either party. Ingraham, P. J., Laughlin, Clarke and Scott, JJ., concurred. Order modified as directed in opinion, and as modified affirmed, without costs. Order to be settled on notice.
