John ersvry vs.L.K Vaden

A motion was made in the Circuit Court of Weak
ley at February Term, 1855, by Drewry vs. Walden
a constable of that county, and his sureties ~foi
failing to return within the time prescribed by law
and paying over the money upon an execution which
was issued and placed in his hands for collection on
the 18th day Of September 1853 for S2272, beside:
costs in favor OF the said john Drewry and against
S. L. Williams and S. Williams, and stayed by w
Laust
The motion was refused, as appears from the re
cord upon the ground Of want Of jurisdiction in
such a case, as the money had not been collected
We do not so understand TIE statutes.
By the act of 1901 Car. & Mich, $50, the motion is
given against the cOnstabes before the County Court
for failure to render the moneys on executions IN %
days If not stayed in 30, there be stay, after its
expiration "uness by his return it shall appear nc
property can be found, . Cookies Rep. 267.
By the act of 1885, Car. & Mich 2II sec. TO- ''all
Judges, by motion now cOgnizable in the County
Court shall be eognizable only in the Circuit Court"
Now. by the act Of 1901. as we have seen, the
County Court had this jurisdiction not only when
the money was collected, but even when it was not,
and he failed to show, by his return that it could
not be made.
Consequently, the same jurisdiction passed to the
Circuit Court in such cases. and has never been tax
en- away.
In cases where the money was collected and not
paid ever the act Of 1928 Car. Mich 1S2 confined
jurisdiction for the first time upon Justices of the
Peace to give judgment by motion In 1885 the same
was gwen 70 JUSTICE Tor IaiIure 10 return IN ~
days. But this did not Gust the Circuit Court of the
jurisdiction it then had Of the same matter but it
was concurrent
The Code sec. 1891 continues this concurrent ju-
rlsdicti0n, over these notions 0fcOurse this is con
fined the Justice of the Peace to cases within
their Jurisdiction but in the Court to any amount.
Taking these acts altogether, we conclude contra
ry to our first impression, thar the Circuit Court
had urisd .tion to render Judgment for failure 10
return auexecution in proper time, whether the
money was collected or not But not having the
facts fully before u.s. we reverse the Judgment and
remand the case for the action Of the Circuit Court

RarE vs.. Cheek-
! was hrnneht for an alleped breach 81


This action was brought for alleged breach Of
a covenant Of seizn.
In December 1851, the defendant, Cheek, convey.
ed to the plaintiff lot Of ground in the city of Mem
! phis. The deed purpOrts that the consideration of
four thousand dollars was paid for said lot by the
plaintiff to the defendant. This deed contained sim
ply covenant Of general warranty in the usual
form. The plaintiff was let into possession of the
lot on which mill had been erected, and still re-
mains in the undlsturbed possession of the same.
About eghtee months after the execution of the
before mentioned deed, the defendant executed TO
plaintiff another deed for she lot upon the rep
resentation of plaintiff is stated in the proof that
the first deed was formally defective" The last
deed was made upon no new consideration.
1t was made to bear the same date and recite the
same consideration of the first Decd and no re-
spect differed from it. except that it contained
covenant Of sezin and that the lot was free from
all membranes; and that Cheek had lawful right
to sell and convey the same.
Upon this latter deed the present action IS based
The breaches assigned, negative the several cove
nants above mentioned, especially the covenant Of
seizin.
The proof shows that Cheek derived title to the
lot by conveyance from one Narum Cement bear
ing date the 9TH day of November, 1912 And II IS
further shown that prior to the time Of said con-
veyance, namely on the 18th Of May, lS47, Ozment
had Invested himself 20 the legal TILE 70 said lot by
an antenupual settlemeutunder which the title was
vested in one James A. Banks, in whom it still re-
mains.
II is proved that the consideration Of the convey
ance from Cheek TO Park was not four thousand
dollars in money, the deed imports; but that the
true consideration was steamboat called the st
Cloud given in even exchange by the latter t. the
former for said lot
The inry were instructed by the Court that the
latter decd containing and additional covenants,
If made without any new consideration to support
it. would for that reason, be imperative and void
In this Instruction II is said there is error.
In the proof set forth in the bill Of exceptions,
there is no intimaton Of fraud in the procurement
Of the record deed. Il is not made 70 appear wheth
er the additional covenants in the latter deed were
incorporated therein in fulfllment Of the original

jurisdiction for the recovery Of demands purely e-

This embraces the present ease. Tie amended bin

But it is said the amended bill contains no prayer

is true that Ia its more restricted sense it is often
limited 70 -conveyances OF what is simply term

It embraces ssgnments OF claims and every species

very comprehensive; and statutes made to suppress

This was an action Of covenant for breach Of war

Minerva conveyed by the defendant to the plaintiff

The proof is conflicting; that the charge of the
COurt-wlich is not set out in the bill Of exceptions
was unexceptionable; We should not feel at hber-
~ under the rule of this Court 70 disturb the YER
dict, but for the statement of the witness Pryor.
which, though objected to by the plaintiff counsel
admitted to 90 the jury as competent evidence.
The witness stated, that in October, 1855, after
the Institution, and during the tendency Of this suit
he had a conversation with the girl Minerva IN the
street in the town Of Paris in substance as follows.
The girl wanted him to buy her; he told her she
was diseased; she replied that she sound when
she went to plaintiff s. that she had become diseas-
ed since she went there from carrying wood and
water and meal, and flour from the mill. that plain
tits was ahard place to get along st, that she had
been whipped by plaintiff, and bore the marks upon
her back; aud that she would go any where in pre-
ference to living with plaintiff
This entire statement Of the witness ought have
been rejected. Its admission was not sanctioned by
any determination of this Court, of which we are
aware-certainy not by either Of the cases referred
