1871On these questions we are entirely satisfied, not only from the light of decided cases (see 13 Ohio St. 263 ; 17 Ohio St. 640 , and 18 Ohio St. 73 ), but upon the true construction of the statute, that both the party disqualified and the adverse party referred to must be parties to the record, and adversely interested in the determination of the issues of fact, and they must be so related to the action and the issues at the time of trial, but it matters not whether they stand upon the same side or opposite sides of the record.
