Rep. 203. The defendants pleaded non est factum, and upon the trial of the issues thereon joined, they raised several objections to the recovery of the relator, among which was one that the bond in question was never taken by any Court. The objections were all overruled by the presiding Judge, and the relator had a verdict and judgment, from which the defendant appealed.\nFrancis, for the plaintiff.\nJ. W. Woodjin and Baxter, for the defendants."
