Head Matter:
JONES against DE KAY.
ON CERTIORARI.
The reason assigned for the reversal of the judgment below was, that the justice admitted the book of account of the plaintiff below, in evidence, without proof that it was the plaintiff’s book of original entry. It turned out, that the real objection was, that the book was of a suspicious cast. Some leaves had been cut out, and the account was kept ledgerwise.

Opinion:
By the Court. — The
book was admissible in evidence. The credit due it was for the determination of the jury.
Judgment affirmed.
