The affidavit contained a particular statement of their cause of action, and they filed no other.\nThe defendant, after the property had been replevied, gave bond, and the same was restored to him. A jury trial was had, and there was a verdict and judgment for the plaintiffs for a portion of the cotton and corn. The defendant appealed to the Circuit Court.\nAfter the plaintiffs had filed an amended complaint, and a demurrer had been sustained to it, the Circuit Court, upon motion of the defendant, dismissed the suit, upon the ground that it had no jurisdiction of the case, because no .written statement of the facts on which the action was founded, or other than that contained in the affidavit, Avas filed Avith the justice, The plaintiffs appealed to this court.\nAs the affidavits filed contained a particular statement of the facts constituting the plaintiffs\u2019 cause of action, it served the office of both complaint and affidavit, and the statute requiring a Avritten statement of the facts upon which the action is founded to be filed with the justice before the summons is issued, Avas substantially , if not literally, complied with. Jetton & Farris v. Smead,; Perkins v. Smith, 4 Blackf., 299; Minchrod v. Windoes, 29 Ind., 288.\nThe Circuit Court erred in dismissing the suit; its judgment, is therefore overruled, and the cause remanded to it, with instructions to proceed to a determination of the cause according to laAv.",
