      R. B. Tripp, contra.
    
   Tbe court, no opinion being filed, overruled the motion to retax costs, holding that as it had been the custom of the bar, which custom had been recognized by the court, to tax, as costs incurred by the prevailing party on an appeal, an attorney’s docket-fee of ten dollars under the fee bill of the United States, that practice would not now be disturbed.

All the justices concurred.
