The Court
refused the motion to amend and gave judgment for the defendant on the demurrer, relying very much on the ruling of this court in the case of The State use of Godwin v. Collins et al., 1 Harr. 216, and the policy and practice announced in it of allowing amendments after issue joined in law or fact before argument almost as a matter of course in fair cases when the rights of the adverse party would not be prejudiced by it, but not after argument and particularly on general demurrer.
