Knox, administrator, vs. Summers et al.
    
    Where an attorney makes an affidavit as the foundation of a garnishment, it is not sufficient for him to state that the defendant is justly indebted to his client a specific sum, “and that he (the attorney at law) has reason to believe that the said Daniel N. Baker (his client,) will apprehend the loss of the same, or some part thereof, unless process of garnishment do issue.” A garnishment founded on such an affidavit will be dismissed on motion.
   Crawford, Justice.
