Opinion

Jackson, Judge.

Suit on a promissory note, due in 1861, was brought by the administrator on the 10th of October, 1872. Letters of administration were granted the 3d of July, 1871. More than nine months and-fifteen days intervened between the grant of letters and the suit; therefore, the suit is barred by the equitable construction given that act by this court in the case of The Moravian Seminary vs. Atwood, 50th Georgia, 382, and the court was right in granting the non-suit.

Judgment affirmed.
