Opinion

The Court

were of opinion that the replication of coverture as to some of the plaintiffs, and of infancy as to others, is not a good replication to a plea of the statute of limitations.

Where adults and infants have a joint right of action for trespass, the incapacity of the infants shall not avail the adults so as to avoid the statute of limitations.1
