Hayes vs. Pittman, executrix.
    Suit was brought by Hayes against Mrs. Pittman, executrix of J. G Pittman, on the following receipt: “Received, Thomasville, January 6th, 1871, of Joshua Smith, one hundred dollars for James H. Hayes, the same to be credited on note held by James H. Hayes against said Joshua Smith. [Signed] ' “J. G. Pittman.” The only evidence introduced was the receipt itself, and the testimony of the plaintiff’s son that Pittman had several claims belonging to his father for collection, but he knew nothing about this particular note:
    
      Held, that a non-suit was properly awarded,
   Jackson, Justice.
