The words of the Constitution, that personal property of the value of $500, and belonging to any resident, \u201c shall be, and is hereby exempted from sale under execution or other final process of any court, issued for the collection of any debt,\u201d (Art. 10, \u00a71), is a continual mandate to the officer to leave so much of the debtor\u2019s personal estate untouched for his use, and of course, the diminution from use, loss, or other cause, must be replenished with other, if the debtor has such, up to the prescribed limits. It is plainly meant that when any final process against the debtor\u2019s estate is to be enforced, that much of his estate must be allowed to remain with him, as not liable to seizure.\n\u201c The law,\u201d in the language of this Court, in Citizens Bank v. Green, 78 N. C., 247, \u201c is aimed at the creditor only, and it is upon him that all the restrictions are imposed; and the extent of these restrictions is the measure of the privileges secured to the debtor; and these restrictions imposed on the creditor, are thatm seeking satisfaction of Ms debt, he shall leave to the debtor, untouched, $500 of his personal, and $1,000 of his real estate.\u201d\nThere is no error.\nNo error.

    "head_matter": "WILLIAM CAMPBELL v. B. F. WHITE.\nPersonal Property Exemption.\n1. A debtor is entitled to \u00a7500 of personal property, as a personal property exemption, and when this amount has been once allotted, and has been diminished by use, loss or other cause, the debtor has a right to have any other personal property he may have exempted, up to the prescribed limit.\n(Citizens Bank v. Oreen, 78 N. C., 247 ; cited and approved.)\nCivil action, tried before Glark, Judge, at October Term, 1886, of New Hanover Superior Court.\nThe plaintiff caused execution to issue upon a docketed judgment in the Superior Court, upon which personal property of the value of $500 was laid off to the defendant, and the sheriff made return of a levy upon what was found in excess. Some two weeks afterwards, on July 27th, 1886, upon affidavit, made under \u00a7488, par. 2 of The Code, the clerk issued- notice to the defendant, requiring him to appear at a time and place specified, for examination in regard to his \u25a0property, and to show cause why a receiver thereof should not be appointed, and meanwhile to desist from making any disposition thereof.\nUpon the hearing before the clerk, the plaintiff\u2019s counsel moved to subject all the estate of the debtor, outside of that exempted and allotted to him, to the payment of the execution, which was refused, the clerk \u201cbeing in doubt as to whether the defendant is entitled to the \u00bfhoses in action, in addition to his former exemptions,\u201d so as to run up the aggregate value to the limit fixed by law, and a receiver was appointed to take charge of the property.\nUpon the appeal by the plaintiff to the Superior Court, it was adjudged that the personal property collected by the receiver appointed in this cause, shall be held by the Court, subject to the application of the defendant to have so much thereof laid off to him as a personal property exemption, as will make his exemption up to $500, and that the surplus thereof shall he paid by said receiver to the plaintiff, to be applied to the satisfaction of plaintiff\u2019s execution.\nFrom this ruling the plaintiff appealed, and brings up for review, the question, whether a judgment debtor can claim,. toties quoties, as exempt, the full measure allowed by law,, against every final process.\nNo counsel for the plaintiff.\nMr. Bellamy, for the defendant."
