Opinion

By the CouRT.

The case comes before us prematurely. At present we are confined to the record, and cannot know that the defendant is sued as executor in his own wrong; and of course the general rule must prevail, which does not oblige executors or administrators to swear to defences, in suits brought against them in their representative capacity.
