In bar of the Statute of Limitations, the plaintiff replied, that the defendant was beyond sea, and it was held no plea, for the plaintiff might either file his original, or outlaw him; and in one Bynton's case, it was held by Bridgman, C.J. that though the Courts of Justice were shut up so as no original could be filed, yet this statute would bar the action ; because the statute is general, and must work upon all cases which are not exempted by the exception.

The plaintiff demurred. Et per Cur. Though the imprisonment be complained of as one continued imprisonment, yet the defendant may divide the time, and plead the statute as to part, and the plaintiff may reply the continuance; therefore as to this, judgment was given against the plaintiff upon his demurrer, but for him as to the rest; because the capias was awarded by the Court ex ojfirio, and it did not appear that the defendant meddled in it.
