Livingston v. Bird

Opinion of the Court

The facts in this petition were agreed by the parties, and the court, instead of opening said former decree and admitting the executors to recover this sum at law upon said bond, ordered and decreed said Bird to pay said sum of £132 8s. 2d., York money, and interest; and that execution go for the same: A caution against listening too readily to suggestions against persons who are deceased, and against debts deliberately secured by written obligations.
