ActioN on a note, dated the 29th of December. The defendant plead in bar, that said note was executed on the 30th ■of December which was Sunday or Lord’s day, and not on the 29th of said December the day it bears date.

¶1Judgment- — -That the reply of the plaintiff is sufficient and for the plaintiff to recover; for that said note was given in the night season preceding the Sabbath, when there is no law *99which expressly forbids it, or that declares such note to be void — and in this particular case, it appeared to be an interference to prevent the imprisonment of the brother.
