New York Court of Chancery October 19, 1841 (Whelpley v. Van Epps)

The Chancellor.

Two objections are made to the • form of the jurat in this case : 1st. That the defendant swears that the facts were true, in the past tense; and 2d, That he merely swore that the facts stated, in the answer, and not the matters therein stated were true. The jurat is in the usual and proper form, so far as relates to the matter of the first objection.
