2. That the dockets, from which it appeared, that a judgment had been assigned by an attorney in fact in vacation before the clerk, might be laid before the jury to prove the assignment of *531the judgment, although the warrant of attorney be not produced or proved in any manner — not, however, as conclusive evidence-of the fact.
