    Gardenhire vs. Parks and M’Daniel.
    Evidence to prove that the subscribing witnesses to a deed, are men of bad character and not worthy of credit upon oath is admissible.
   Opinion of the court delivered by

Judge Haywood.—

The plaintiff produced a deed for the lands in question, which had been proved in the county court and registered; the defendants offered witnesses to prove, that the subscribing witnesses who had proved the execution of the deed in the county court, were men of bad character, and could not be believed upon oath in a court of justice, and also offered to prove other circumstances which led to the conclusion that the deed was a forgery; the circuit court admitted the testimony; we are all clearly of opinion that the evidence was proper, and ought to have been received. We therefore, affirm the judgment of the circuit court. Judgment affirmed.
