Mr. Justice Scott

delivered the opinion of the Court.

Proof of execution of the order in question wras an indispensable pre-requisite to its being read in evidence. Had this been done, then its possession by the debtor on whom it was drawn, was •prima facie evidence that he had paid it according to its tenor. (2 Greenl. Ev., p. 492, sec. 518.)

The judgment must be reversed, and the cause remanded.
