Opinion
From the affidavits which have been read, it appears that the bond was usurious; but the court are not to judge of the credibility of witnesses. As. there is color, at least, for the allegation of usury, the proper course is to award a feigned issue to try the fact. ' (Barnes, 52, 277. Cowp. 727. 1 Bos. & Pull. 270.) Let a feigned issue be awarded.(
