sustained the objection and excluded the witness.,

The plaintiff had a verdict for $150 00 and a rule was granted, on his application, to show cause why this verdict should not be set-off against the verdict just recovered in the case of Hollis vs. Morri s; which, upon hearing, was made absolute. It appeared that the defendant in this case was insolvent, and the assignment of his verdict against the present plaintiff, had been made with a view to defeat the right of set-off, and with full knowledge, on the part of the assignee, of all the circumstances.
