Opinion of the Court

Chapman, J.

We think the court properly rejected the evi*517dence offered on the defendant’s motion to order a nonsuit and default, because it had no authority to grant the motion. Mitchell v. New England Marine Insurance Co. 6 Pick. 117. Coburn v. Whitely, 8 Met. 272. Moore v. Cutter, 3 Allen, 468.

Exceptions overruled.
