1Opinion of the Court

OPINION OP

THE COURT.

The only

question presented by the record is, whether the execution offered in evidence by the appellant was properly excluded. We are of opinion that it was incompetent evidence. To have authorized its introduction, the judgment upon which it issued should also have been produced. 3 Litt. 14; 1 Salk. 409 ; 2 Johns. 281; 12 Johns. 213; 2 South. [5 N. J. Law] 813; 20 Johns. 338; 5 Serg. & R. 332; 1 A. K. Marsh, 158; 1 B. Mon. 94; 1 Gilman, 136. Affirmed.
