Opinion
Under the Act of Assembly, 1 Del.Laws 449, the paper is evidence. There are no negative words in the Act of Congress which can exclude any testimony which would have been competent before. The Act of Congress goes to prescribe one mode by which papers could be authenticated in the different states, but it does not abrogate those laws which had prescribed another mode.
