Analysis
No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.
Opinion — Terry
The opinion of the Court was delivered by Mr. Justice Terry.
Mr. Chief Justice Murray concurred.
The witness, Howard, being responsible to the plaintiffs as endorser of the note sued on, had a direct interest in establishing a lien upon the property of the defendants; he was therefore an incompetent witness for that purpose.
Judgment reversed and cause remanded.
