BROCARD vs. CAMP'S CURATOR.
    
    A party to a sale, cannot prove its simulation by parole.
    Appeal from the court of the parish and city of New Orleans.
   Martin, J.

delivered the opinion of the court. This cause is before us on a bill of exceptions to the opinion of the court of probates, on the rejection of parol proof that the sale of a lot, made by the plaintiff for the deceased, was a simulated one, and that the latter promised to re- convey the lot.

The case has been submitted to us without argument.

East’n District.

July, 1823.

Maybin for the plaintiff, Hennen for the defendant.

We think the judge of probates did not err. The plaintiff ought to have armed herself with a counter letter.—Ante, 451.

It is therefore ordered, adjudged and decreed, that the judgment of the court of probates be affirmed with costs.
