His Honor overruled the motion and adjudged that the defendant pay the costs, from\u2019which judgment the appeal is taken.\nIn this case, the application for surety of the peace was in terms based on the allegation that the party applying, had reason to fear and did fear that defendant would do her serious bodily injury, and the case of appeal does not disclose whether any ground to bind was established by the evidence. In State v. Cooley, 78 N. C., 538, it is ruled that a peace warrant alleging no threat, fact or circumstance from which the court can determine whether the fears of the party praying surety of the peace were well founded, should be quashed ; and upon the authority of that case we hold that the judge should have quashed the warrant in this case.\nLet this be certified to the end that the warrant be quashed in the court below.\nPer Curiam.
