This objection was sustained to annul a contract, that one of the two instrumentary witnesses was a few days short of 14 years of age, when he signed witness.
In this case, a petition for the charger, offering to prove by the suspender's oath, that he had truly subscribed the contract, was refused without answers, January 17, 1739.
