Opinion

Pee Cueiám,

The only question presented by the assignments of error is: Whether the court erred in entering judgment against the defendant for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense?

We find nothing in the record that would have warranted the court in sending the case to.a jury. On the contrary, its action in sustaining the motion for judgment is amply vindicated in the opinion sent up with tire record; and on that opinion, the judgment is affirmed.
