3. The third contention of counsel for appellant is that the court erred in overruling his motion to make more definite and certain on the second and third groando of the motion to-wit: “That they, plaintiffs, be required to state definitely the purpose and object of said loan and for whose benefit the loan was made.” “Third: That they be required to specify with certainty the use to which said cable was to be put. as agreed upm by the parties when the contract of loan was made.”
It is not the office of a motion to malee more definite and certain to point out matters within the knowledge of the movant, but rather'to specify matters not within his knowledge, so that he may property plead thereto.
