      1797.
    
    Payingmouey to a clerk in, the sheriffs office will chai’ge the sheriff, although not authorized to receive moneys generally.
    RULE on the sheriff to -shew cause why he should not pay over money received on an execution.
    The cause shewn by the sheriff in this case, was the same as shewn by him in the case of Abercrombie and Marshall,, (ante,) to wit, that it was paid into the hands of a clerk who was not authorized to receive it.
   But the Court, without hearing argument, ordered the rule to be made absolute on the sheriff, to pay over the money, on the grounds already settled in the case of Aber-crombie and Marshall.

Present, Burke, Grikke and Bay.
