Henderson v. Southall , 8 Va. 371 ( 1790 )

Per Cur.

The court is unanimously of opinion that thé plea of payment is responsive to the negation of non-payment in the declaration; and that the act of assembly, by allowing a general plea of payment in all cases, with a right to prove all anterior payments, in fact, makes it a general issue, in this country. Affirm the judgment.
