    Neil v. Abbott, Administrator of Campbell, survivor of Campbell and Matlock.
    The offer of terms of compromise is not sufficient to take the case out o'f the statute of limitations.
    To take the case out of the statute of limitations the plaintiff offered evidence of the acknowledgments of the defendant’s intestate, Campbell, when offering a compromise, viz.: that Campbell acknowledged the debt to be due by Campbell and Matlock, and offered to pay one half, although he said he was discharged by the insolvent law of Missouri, if the plaintiff would give him time.
    
      Mr. Key, for the defendant,
    objected to this evidence, and cited Baird v. Rice, 1 Call, 26.
    
      Mr. Marbury, contra,
    
    cited 3 Esp. 113.
    January 20th, 1820,
   the Court

(Thruston, J., contra,)

decided that the acknowledgment, under those circumstances could not be given in evidence. Verdict for defendant.
