Bond v. Allen , 1 N.C. 83 ( 1796 )

The Court,

Patterson, J. and Sitgreaves, J.

held that the 4th and 5th sections of that act must be taken together: that the defendant ought to have entitled himself to the benefit of the 4th section, by shewing he had complied with the requisites in the 5th: and as this was not set forth,

The plea was overruled.
