Pierce and others vs. Gunn.
    An affidavit to change venue need not state in terms that the witnesses reside in the etiunty to which the venue is sought to be changed; but is sufficient if it describe the witnesses as of that county.
    
      K. Miller, for the defendant,
    moved to change the venue from N. Y. to Columbia on an affidavit of the defendant which stated that A. B, &c. of the city of Hudson, C. D. of the town of1 Claverack, and E. F. of the town of Greenport, all of the county of Columbia, were material witnesses &c.
    
      F. Kinney, for the plaintiff,
    objected that the affidavit did not state in terms that the witnesses resided in the county of Columbia,
   By the Courts Bronson, J.

The affidavit is sufficient.

Motion granted.
