Head Matter:
Byron and another ads. Lefferts.
THE declaration, with oyer, was served on the defendant’s attorney, and afterwards, having been discovered to be incorrect, was amended, and served de nova, without a new oyer, the one delivered being correct: the defendant’s attorney refused to receive this de - claration, without a new oyer, on which the plaintiff proceeded and entered a default; and now
T. L. Ogden, for the defendant,
moved to set the default aside.
Hopkins, contra.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The service of oyer de nova was altogether unnecessary. The defendant must take nothing by his motion.
