as administrators Of one Henry NJ. Weed, deceased,

were made by the defendants and given TO him tthe
wirness to the proceeds thereoft0 his oene-
Weed deceased OF whose estate the plaintiffs are the
administrators; tnaG when the notes became due
aud payable he with his own money paid the
amount OF the notes to the deceased. To the ad-
objected Under section 399 Of the Code, amended
by laws OF 1862 am satisfied tnat this evidence OF
payment OF the notes by Vermiye TO the deceased
MS lifetime cannot be admitted That section
clares that no party to any action nor
any person Interested in the event thereof
shall be examined as witness IN regard to any
personal transactions or communications between
such witness and person at the time OF such
examination deceased, = against the exc
cutor, administrator OF such deceased person

or Vermiye, loaned them TO him, and that they
were discounted by the deceased at the request OF
vermye he received and used the proceeds thereof;
paid those notes to the deceased In MS lifetime. l
am satisfied Vermiye is interested In the
OF the action for which reason must exclude the
evidence sought to be introduced.
