incidence — as to intention of one party to a contract.
Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Richmond county, affirming a judgment in favor of the plaintiff recovered in a Justice’s Court.

Upon this issue the justice allowed answer to be given to the following questions, under defendant’s objection: Who did you suppose you were making the contract with? Answer. I supposed I was making the contract with Hugh Campbell. Held, that this was error. (Niehóls v. The Kingdom Iron Ore Go., 56 N. Y., 618.)
Also, the question : Is Donal Campbell a man of responsibility ? Answer. So far as I know, he was not responsible. Held, that this was also error. (Green v. Disbrow, 56 N. Y., 334.)
