By the Court.

The acknowledgment and promise to renew the notes on certain terms were conditional, and the terms were not acceded to. The letter does not express either an unconditional promise to pay, or an unqualified admission of present indebtedness, from which such promise can be inferred, so as to take the case out of the operation of the statute of limitations. Barnard x. Bartholomew, 22 Pick. 291. Moon v. Bank of Columbia, 6 Pet. 92.

Judgment for the defendant.
