    Judgment will not be arrested because the plaintiff’s name is indorsed on the bill in blank.
    Debt by indorsee against the acceptor of an inland bill of exchange.
   Verdict for the plaintiff, and motion in arrest of judgment, 1st, because an action of debt will not lie; 2d, because it appears, by the plaintiff’s indorsement on the bill, that he had parted with his right and interest therein. The plaintiff’s name was indorsed in blank, not having been struck out at the trial.

Motion overruled, and judgment entered for plaintiff.»
