This action was brought by Davenport, ordinary, for the *801use of the heirs of T. H. Satterfield, against S. M. Satterfield, administrator on the estáte of T. H. Satterfield, and Goldin and Brown, his sureties on his administration bond. The jury found seven hundred dollars, with interest, against all the defendants, and thereupon a motion for a new trial having been denied the sureties, théy excepted, and assign error here on the several grounds alleged in the' motion.

1. The main and only assignment of error insisted upon here is that the court erred in striking the pleas of the sureties. Brown pleaded to the effect that the bond was not read to him, and both principal and ordinary told him it was only a temporary bond, and that other parties would also sign; and upon these assurances of the principal and the ordinary, he was induced to sign the fifst bond, of which this sued on was a successor, that being, .lost, arid that he was induced to sign them both upon these representations and assurances, and would not have signed but for them.

Brown also plead to this effect, that, if he ever signed the bond, it was done under these circumstances; that the ordinary said the temporary bond signed in 1868 had been lost, and he simply wanted this one signed ás a temporary bond in lieu of that; he could read but poorly, and the ordinary said it was a copy of that; and having corifidence in the ordinary, he believed it ánd signed, and was deceived by these false representations; and the ordinary said further, that John V. Bush was to sign the bond with defendant and others, and he signed on that condition.

It is insisted that the court erred in striking these pleas, first, because the deed was merely an escrow on the facts alleged; and secondly, that by misrepresentations the pláin-' tiff in error was induced to sign.

The case of Crawford, governor, etc., vs. Foster et al., 6 Ga., 202, is cited to show that the deed here is an escrow; but in that case the deed was déliveréd to the principal in order to get the other sureties, with the knowledge of the ordinary, while in the case at bar the allegation is that it was delivered to the ordinary himself, the officer by whom *802it was received officially, being delivered as a deed. Both point-s made here are covered and controlled by the ruling of this court in Lewis et al. vs. Board, of Commissioners, etc., of Gordon County, 70 Ga., 488. The idea that the deed is an escrow is answered in that case on page 494, and the other ground, that Brown was induced so to sign under false representations, such as these pleas allege, seems to be covered by the opinion on page 491-2. The case of Mathis, sheriff, vs. Morgan, 72 Ga., 517, bears directly on the latter point, and shows tlrat such a defence as this cannot be set up successfully. The true ‘ rule is that, if both parties intended that something left otit of the bond at the time it was signed was to be inserted in it then, but was left out by fraud or mistake, then parol evidence was admissible to engraft it therein; but if the party signed in expectation that it would be afterwards done, the bond sis written and delivered could not be altered by parol.

On this point, see Rodgers vs. Rosser, 57 Ga., 319; Howard, & Soule vs. Stephens, 52 Id., 448 Lester vs. Fowler, 43 Id., 190; and Sullivan vs. The Cotton States Life Insurance Co., 43 Id., 423.

The cases above cited, however, in the 70th and 72d volumes of our reports,, so recently considered and adjudicated, make other reference unnecessary.

2. In regard to the plea of non est factum by Goldin, it was not filed at the first term; and none at that term was filed on which it could be grafted; the record showing no plea at the first term, even none of the general issue. Stanton vs. Barge, 34 Ga., 435; Hayden, vs. The Atlanta Cotton Factory, 61 Id., 233; Searcy, executrix, vs. Tillman, 75 Id., 504. Besides, evidence seems to have been taken and introduced largely on this plea, and the preponderance was against the plea. It is by no means certain that it was stricken, so far as this record speaks.

Judgment affirmed.
