By the Court,
It is clear, that the first count is defective, because it does not aver demand and notice, which are necessary to fix the assignor’s liability, unless he shows a sufficient legal excuse to supersede the necessity of this averment. This is not done. The judgment overruling the demurrer to this count is, therefore, wrong.
The issue of non-assumpsit was not disposed of, and in this there is also error. If there is a question of law presented, or an issue of fact, in both cases it is the duty of the court fo have these points disposed of. If it is purely a question of law, it should be decided by the court: if of fact, by a jury, if required. The court ought not to proceed with the case, until all the issues raised upon the record are determined.
Judgmeni reversed.
