   Debt on an administration bond. Narr suggesting breaches. Plea's—payment, non est factum, plene administravit and act of limitations. 1

To repel the plea of the statute of limitations the plff. was about to prove the infancy of Mrs. Killen; but it was objected to, and

The plff. suffered a nonsuit.
