      Berrien Circuit,
    1870.
    Motion on special appeal.
    
      O. L. Goolidge, in support of the motion,
    contended it was uncertain as to where the office was, and cited 1 Cow. T. 458; Haines’ Justice, 168; C. L., §§ 3665, 3695.
   By the Court,

Blackman, J.

The Court takes judicial notice that Buchanan is a township in Berrien oounty, and that the i us tice must have his office in that town. The phrase “ of Buchanan, in Said county at my office” is in substance the same as at my office in the township in which I am a justice.”

Motion denied.
