In this case the counsel for the plaintiffs below moved at the trial, after the evidence had been closed, to strike from the writ and declaration the name of Theresa M. King, one of the plaintiffs, because he had discovered that she had no interest in the suit, which the court permitted to be done, to which the defendant excepted, and on account of which this appeal in error is prosecuted.
