Case No. 18,162.
    YOUNG v. MARINE INS. CO.
    [1 Cranch, C. C. 238.] 1
    Circuit Court, District of Columbia.
    June Term, 1805.
    Qualifications of Jurors.
    The qualifications of jurors in this court must be the same as in the county courts of Virginia.
    [Cited in brief in First Nat. Bank v. Town of Mount Tabor, 52 Vt. 92.]
    [Action by James Young against the Marine Insurance Company of Alexandria.]
   It was yesterday decided

(Cranch, Circuit Judge, absent)

that the qualifications of jurors in this court shall be such as are required for jurors in the county courts of Virginia; and not those required for jurors in the district courts of Virginia. Jurymen therefore need not hold a freehold estate, but must.possess personal property to the value of 150 dollars; but see U. S. v. Johnston [Case No. 15,490].
