2d Exception For that the said Joseph hath not answered and set forth whether any & what sum or sums were paid by the said Thomas Rowland to the said Johnathan in his life time and by the assent of the said Joseph for and on account of said bonds and Mortgage and when so paid.

3d Exception For the said Joseph hath not answered and set forth how and in what manner he has been damnified by reason of his being surety for the said Johnathan as aforesaid or the amount he has paid or secured to pay by reason therof neither has he shown how and in what Manner said French or his administrator was damni-fied or what he had to pay, or secured to the United States by reason of any default of said Johnathan Eastman, or that the said Joseph has legally been compelled to pay any thing.

In all which particulars the said Complainants humbly insist, the said defendants answer is altogether evasive, imperfect and insufficient: Wherefore the said Complainants do except thereto, and humbly prays that the said defendant may be compelled to put in a full and a Sufficient answer to the said bill of Complaint
