JAMES NEIGHBORS\n'The executor of a testator, who has been allowed to carry on a suit in Jornia pauperis, may continue such suit without giving bond, if, at the \u25a0time he applies to be made a party, he files a petition showing a prope\u00ed' \u25a0case.\n'{Mason w. \u00a1Osgood, 71 N. C. Rep. 312.; Osborne v. Hemry, 66 N. C. Rep. 354,-cited and approved.)\nCivil Action, -originally commenced by Crawley, tried oh \u25a0a motion in the cause, before Judge Kerr at Fall Term, 3875, of Randolph Superior Court.\nThe Court permitted, on a proper cause shown, Crawley, he testator of the plaintiff, to sue in forma pauperis. After the action had been pending in Court for several terms, it was submitted to referees. The defendant excepted to the report -of the referees, which exceptions were overruled at Fall Term, 1874, whereupon the defendant gave notice of an appeal to this Court. Pending this appeal, (which has not yet been brought up and docketed in this Court,) and since the Spring Term, 1875, of Randolph Superior Court, the then plaintiff, Crawley, died, leaving a last will, and appointing the plaintiff, I. J. Hamlin, his executor, who proved -said will and qualified as executor thereto.\nAt Fall Term, 1876, of said Superior Court, Hamlin, the \u25a0executor, upon the suggestion of the death of the former plaintiff, his testator, moved to be made plain tiff in his stead. This motion was opposed by the defendant on the ground, that the case was not within the jurisdiction of the Superior Court of Randolph, an appeal then pending in the Supreme Court; and further, that the privilege of suing in forma paupms was strictly personal, and that an executor had no right to be made a party and allowed to prosecute the suit without filing a prosecution- bond.\nThe executor alleged that there was no assets, the defend' ant contending to the contrary. No proof in regard to assets was offered by either party.\nThe motion of the executor was allowed, and the plaintiff allowed to continue the suit without giving bond.\nFrom this ruling, the defendant appealed.\nMendenhall &\u25a0 Staples, W. Clark, lourgee and Gray\u00ab& Stamps, for appellants.\nL. M. Scott, contm. '"
