The defense is the illegality ot tue contract ot indorsement, Decause At the time it was made at New Orleans, in 1862, all intercourse was prohibited between them and the plaintiff, the former being domiciled in Kentucky and the latter in Louisiana. The defendants also pleaded that the consideration for said indorsement was Confederate money.
