        "text": "Asee, J,\nIt is expressly declared in section 303 C. C. P. that, \u201c an undertaking upon an appeal shall be of no effect, unless it be accompanied by the affidavit of the sureties that they are each worth double the amount, specified therein.\u201d \u201c To render an appeal effectual for any purpose a written undertaking must be executed on the part of the appellant with good and sufficient surety,\u201d &c., and by section 310 C. 0. P. it is declared that \u201c an undertaking upon an appeal shall be of no effect unless it be accompanied by the affidavit of the sureties that they are each worth double the amount specified therein.\nThis section has been interpreted at this term of the court in Hancock v. Bramlett to bear the same construction it did before the section 303 was amended by the act of 1871-2 ch. 31 \u00a7 1, which provided that one surety was Sufficient on an appeal bond for costs.\nIn this case the bond was not justified by the affidavit of the surety, but bore the endorsement of the clerk, to wit: The within bond is good.\u201d This we hold is not a compliance with the law for perfecting appeals, and is distinguished from the case of Hancock v. Bramlett supra., for in that case the presiding judge in the case on appeal states that the bond fixed at $25 is \u201c filed and approved,\u201d and it was presumed that the bond was taken in open court under the supervision of the judge. But this bond is approved by the clerk, it may be privately, when the appellee had no notice of its being filed or any opportunity to object to its sufficiency.\nThe motion to dismiss must be sustained.\nPer Curiam, Appeal dismissed,",
