Donley, J.

Art. 1390, O. & W. Digest, provides, that every matrimonial agreement must be made by an act before a notary public and two witnesses. [Paschal’s Dig., Art. 4633, Note 1041.] In the alleged marriage contract in this cause there are no witnesses; this is not in conformity with the statute, and the appellee cannot be affected thereby.

Aeeirmed.
