Per Curiam.

Supposing the true construction of the evidence to be, that part of the consideration of the note was for the use of a billiard table, in playing billiards at the house of Minturn ; yet, as there is no evidence that Minturn then kept a tavern, it was not an unlawful contract; there being no evidence that it was for money lost at play. The judgment below must fee affirmed.
