Affirmation of a minor, that he was major when he knew himself to be minor, animo decipiendi, is found relevant to debar the minor from restitution. And sicklike, that he swear not to come in the contrary of the bond made by him, by seeking to be restored, is likewise found relevant to debar him from craving restitution. And both these allegeances to be proven by the minor's oath.

2d MS. Page 145.
