    United States v. McKnight.
    Judgment entered by mistake of the cleric, may he set aside at the next term, and the execution quashed.
    Indictment for gaming. The Court at last term had ordered this and the other gaming cases, (of which there were about forty on the docket depending on the same question of law) to stand over and be continued to this term for further argument; but the clerk,'by mistake, had entered judgments upon the verdicts, and issued executions.
    
      Mr. Simms, for the defendant,
    moved the court to set aside the judgments and quash the executions; and cited Fox v. Glass, 2 Str. 823, and 2 W. Black. Rep. 943, 1097.
   The Court

assented to the motion; the error being a mistake of the clerk.
