Rudd and Everett, executors of Cable, against Long.
    Executors and •» dministrators r.aust pay costs o n a judgment of 3i on-pros.
    A JUDGMENT of non-pros having been entered against the plaintiffs in this cause, it was submitted to the court, whether, as executors, they were bound to pay costs.
   Per Curiam.

It is well settled, that an executor or administrator must pay costs, on a judgment of non-pros. (3 Burr. 1584—1586. Tidd's K. B. Prac. 898. 6 Term, 654.) It is the default of the plaintiffs, and they ought not to be exempted, in such a case, from the payment of costs.
