Lucy Richardson set forth in her bill, filed in the Chancery court of Richmond, that on the 5th July *1801, she obtained a decree in the county court of Nottoway, against John Patterson, administrator of one Anderson, for 501. with interest from February 1st J801; and for 221., with interest from 5th July 1801. That in 1812, she gave to Peter Bland, an order for the money, who had received it, and had never paid it over; he is a defendant to the bill.

Decided 1821-04-15

ROANE, Judge.

¶1There is no error in the decree to the prejudice of the appellants;, but it is erroneous, as it respects the ap-pellee, in allowing interest on the 501. from January 1806, instead of the 1st February 1801. The decree is therefore reversed, as to this, and affirmed for the residue. Costs-are allowed the appellee, as the party substantially prevailing.
