He presented an account claiming 75 cents per day for feeding each prisoner, but the county court allowed only fifty cents per day. He appealed to the circuit court, where, on conflicting testimony as to reasonable compensation, the amount claimed was allowed him. Judgment was entered accordingly, and the county appealed.\nThe statute provides 'that \u201cwhenever any person committed to jail upon any criminal process, under any law of this State, shall declare on oath that he is unable to buy or procure necessary food, the sheriff or jailer shall provide such prisoner the food necessary for his support, for which he shall be-allowed a reasonable compensation, to be fixed by the county court.\u201d Kirby\u2019s Digest, \u00a7 4402. .\nAppeals are allowed from all final orders and judgments of the county court to the circuit court (Kirby\u2019s Digest, \u00a7 1487), and on such appeals the circuit court proceeds to try the case de novo as other cases at law.

Appeal \u2014 conclusiveness of finding of court. \u2014 Under Kirby\u2019s Digest, \u00a7 4402, providing that the county court may fix a reasonable compensation to the jailer for feeding the county prisoners, a finding of the circuit court, on appeal from the county court, that seventy-five cents per diem was a reasonable compensation therefor will not be disturbed on appeal therefrom if based upon legally sufficient evidence. (Page 505-)\nAppeal from Marion Circuit Court; B. G. Mitchell, Judge;\naffirmed.\nWoods Bros., for appellant.\nThe evidence fully shows that the county court did not abuse its discretion in fixing the compensation of the jailer, and that the allowance was equal to the value of the services rendered.
