Opinion

Per Curiam.

We are not disposed to countenance this mode of pleading, unless it be done in good faith. If done wantonly, and for the purpose of experiment, it ought not to be suffered. Unless the defendant will state upon the record, or make affidavit, that the charges contained in the notice are groundless, the motion must be denied.

Rule refused.
