H. only doubt shst could bs entsrtasnetf

clare, that The court were then appfized
ofmy objections 70 the issuing ofthe writ

fueneed my opinion, and the. cause was
this !: The gentleman who argued that
cause, confined himself strictly TO-. those
considerations, which ought alone to in-

by the opinion Of one Of my brethren,
who 10 prevented BY indisposition from
attending. = r. :. s. =
