By the court.

It is well settled, that it is a good plea in abatement of the writ, that the demandant or plaintiff, who sues without a guardian or next friend, is an infant. Chitty’s Pl. 436.—2 Saunders 117, f. note (1.)—1 Tidd’s Prae. 69.— *3467 Johnson 373, Schemerhorn vs. Jenkins.—2 Saunders 212.-Comyn’s Digest, Pleader 2 C. 1.
But it is very clear, that the writ may be amended. 1 Cowen 33; Ex parte Scott.—2 Saunders 212, and notes.—1 Tidd’s Prac. 69—12.

Leave to amend granted.
