L. 1874, entitled \u201cRevenue,\u201d (p. 890,) are repealed by \u00a7\u00a7 122 and 123 of the chapter of the R. L. 1874, entitled \u201c County Courts\u201d (p. 344); or, may appeals be prosecuted either to the circuit or the Supreme Court, in the cases therein provided, as the appellant may elect?\nThe question is not an open one.\nIn Fowler v. Pirkins, 77 Ill. 271, it was held there was no necessary repugnancy between these sections, and that they might all consist together; and, therefore, that an appeal would properly lie from the judgment of the county court for delinquent taxes, either to the circuit or the Supreme Court.\nThe judgment of the circuit court dismissing the appeal must, therefore, be reversed, and the cause remanded.\nJudgment reversed.",
