Case posture

Posture: THIS action was brought to recover money received by the defendant's testator in his lifetime as county ranger. The defendant had been dead fifteen years or more. The defendant, among other things, pleaded the ordinary statute of limitations and the statute limiting actions against the estate of deceased persons to seven years. The question referred to the Supreme Court is whether the plaintiff's claim is barred by either of the aforesaid statutes of limitation.
