A judgment had been rendered against J. J. Rickey and R. H. Stevenson as joint debtors, and the plaintiff has issued execution against R. H. Stevenson only, and is about to levy, when said Stevenson interposes this motion.

The execution must follow the judgment, though the party may have the right to direct the execution to be levied on the property of one of the defendants for the whole debt. Slaughter v. Price, 2 J. J. Marsh. 137.

Motion granted.
