United States v. Jackson

(nem. con.) decided, that Major Barry was a competent witness, and his deposition was read.

Mr. Key then offered Messrs. Polkinhorn and Campbell.

Mr. Brent objected.

But the Coukt overruled the objection and they were examined.

The indictment charged the forgery to be to the prejudice of the right of the said W. T. Barry, and with intent to defraud him, under the eleventh section of the Penitentiary Act of 1831.
