WILLIAM ANDER vs. CURTIS J. and CHARLES H. ROSS.
    If witnesses be sworn by a magistrate before the commissioner to take depositions, it is sufficient.
    Narr. in assumpsit.
    In this case the plaintiff offered in evidence the deposition of Cannon Dawson, taken on a commission directed to Joseph Olds, of Pickaway county Ohio, authorizing him to examine witnesses to be brought before him, they being first sworn before him. It was objected to, because it did not appear that the witness was sworn by the commissioner.
    
      Rogers and Wootten, for plaintiff.
    
      Cullen and Frame, for defendants.
   The jurat showed that the witness was sworn in the presence of the commissioner by a magistrate of the county of Pickaway. The court overruled the objection, and admitted the deposition.
