WILLIAM ELLIGOOD v. H. SMITH and WILLIAM BONESS, Executors of James Lowry.
    Court of Common Pleas.
    April, 1794.
    
      Wilson’s Red Book, 34.
    
    
      
      James P. Wilson for defendants.
    
      William Peery for plaintiff.
   The Court are of opinion that an action of trover is not maintainable against executors for a conversion in the lifetime of the testator, considering the law on that subject to be well settled in the case of Hambly against Trott reported in Cowp. 375.
