Whether the plea in abatement is properly sworn to or not, is wholly immaterial, as the matter set up .so defence to the writ. It is true, the statute authorizes the clerk to withhold the writ, unless the party applying for it pays the tax- But, when it has been once issued, the failure to pay for the writ certainly cannot constitute a ground of de-fence. If the clerk suffers the writ to go out without payment of the tax and issuing fee, be does so at his own personal risk.\nJudgment reversed.",

Richard C. S. Brown, one of the Circuit Judges. Peevey, the defendant, pleaded, in abatement, that the tax, and issuing fees of the writ, were not paid by the plaintiff, when the writ issued. Demurrer to this plea overruled, and final judgment for defendant.\nBlackburn, for the plaintiff in error."
