The Greenville Ne,rs of Sunday, in re-
porting the Court proceedings of Satur-
day, says: ION the application Of Adam
G. Welborn, attorney for one OF the par
ties to suit in Anderson County, Judge
FSaser issued ruleagainst Sheriff w. l..
Bolt, Of that County, requiring him to
show cause why he had refused to serve
summons and complaint in the. action.
The question that has long heen unsettled,
the right of sheriff to refuse to serve a
summons and complaint when the papers
are not accompanied with the cost OF
serving. Sheriffs in different counties
regulate the question to suit themselves.
Some of them do not require their costs
in advance and wait until these cases are
decided. Others require the costs In ad-
vance and there is no statutory provision
regulating the conduct Of the sheriffs.
Mr. Welborn sent the papers in the action
to Sheriff Boltand he refused to serve them
nn the ground that his costs were not paid
in adyanc. The members Of the bar all
over the State hold different opinions on
the question. The case will probably SO
to Che Supreme Court"
