Opinion
You had better wait until the pleadings are completed, so that what the defence really is can be seen, and whether there is in fact a defence arising under an act of congress; for the present purpose it is clearly sufficient that the affidavit should simply state that there is such a defence in the words of the act. The rest may be rejected as surplusage. Motion denied.
