Clark, appellee.\nAppeal from Scott.\nAn appeal from the Circuit to the Supreme Court, where the judgment is final, and amounts to $20 exclusive of costs, or relates to a franchise or freehold, is a matter of right.\nThis was a motion to dismiss the appeal because the same was granted upon condition that the defendant should verify by his own affidavit, within twenty days, two papers produced on the trial by the parties, but which were not in Court when the bill of exceptions was made up. Upon such verification, said papers were to be included in the bill of exceptions.\nWm. Brown, for the appellee.\nJosiah Lamborn, for the appellant."
