This was a motion to amend a judgment. On the 5th of February, 1867, Lyne sued Tho,s. S. Irby in his individual capacity, and as the administrator of Abraham Irby, on a promissory note for $1,655.53, and obtained judgment thereon on the 29th of August, 1867, which judgment was entered up against the defendant in his individual capacity only. An execution issued upon that judgment against the defendant in his individual capacity, and as administrator. There were several entries made on the fi. fa. by the clerk and sheriff, and some credits entered thereon. In July, 1S73, Lyne transferred the fi. fa. and judgment to Downing, and on the 23d of January, 1875, Downing transferred the same to Brown.

See Code, §3573. We affirm the judgment of the court below, with directions to strike out of the amended judgment so much thereof as is not authorized by the pleadings in the record.
Judgment affirmed, with directions.
