M. 8. Bassett complained in Justice
Nash's court, few days ago. against
Albert Regel, accusing him Of un-
lawfully pursuing with intent to cap
ture and kill a rabbit-that III, not

AN IMPORTANT DEMURRER.
A demurrer embodying a law point
Of more than ordinary interest was
heard Wednesday afternoon by Judge
Hayden. It was in the case Of ex
Justice A. w. Hall VS.. Justice ]. r
Campbell, suit growing out of a1
alleged act Of Justice Campbell in ap
pointing bondsman unsatisfactory
to Mr.. Hall. Some time ago, Mr.. Hal
was given judgment in Justice Camp
BELLS court against H. e. Loomis, et
al, for q claim he had brought suit
to collect. The defendants appealed
from the decision, and Justic Camp
bell allowed person not satisfactory
to Mr.. Hall to sign their bond Mr.
Hall was unable to collect the claim
for which he had received Judgment
and he brought suit against Justic,
Campbell to recover damages amount
ing to $3.50. holding him liable b,
reason of his having appointed an un
satisfactory bondsman. Counsel 70,
Justice Campbell presented demur
rer, claiming that his approval of tn,
bond was judicial act, and If ther,
were an error of Judgment in it, tn,
court could not be held liable, as 4
would develop precedent which
would hold all courts as a guarante,
for bonds they approved.
