Opinion
Spring Sessions, 1838.
DEBT on a constable's bond.
Brinckloe, for plaintiff.
Robinson, for defendant.
At the trial a witness was called to prove the hand-writing of the subscribing witness to the bond. He had never seen the party write, but he had seen a long account acknowledged by him to be his handwriting; and from this he offered to swear to his belief of the signature. The testimony was objected, to and admitted by the court. (See 2 Stark. Ev. 373, c.)
