Head Matter:
Thorn and others v. The State.
Judgments in favor of the State against administrators should be rendered to be paid in due course of administration.
Wherea judgment is rendered generally, when it should be rendered to be paid in due course of administration, this court will reverse and reform.
Error from San Augustine.
T. J. Jennings, for plaintiffs in error.
B. S. Walker, for defendant in error.

Opinion:
Hemphill, Ci-i. J.
The only objection to the judgment in this case which requires any consideration is that judgment is entered against defendant generally, without specifying and directing that as to the defendant Jane B. Hart, administratrix of the estate of Tm. Hart, deceased, it was to be paid in the due course of administration. This is an error which can be corrected by this court, and it is therefore ordered that the judgment be reversed and such judgment entered as should have been rendered in the court below.
Reversed and reformed.
