Supreme Court of Georgia May 25, 1901 (Carter v. Tippins)

Lumpkin; P. J.

Mrs. Carter, as administratrix of the estate of her deceased husband, brought an action against J. W. and M. E. Tippins, upon three promissory notes given by them to him. They, among other things, pleaded as a set-off that she was, as administratrix, indebted to them in an amount stated, for the rent of a dwelling-house.
