Head Matter:
*Burwell v. Court.
April Term, 1794.
Forthcoming Bond — Failure to State Place of Delivery —Effect. —A forth-coming bond is good, although it appoints no place at which the delivery is to he made.
This was an appeal, from a judgment,of the District Court of Williamsburg, rendered upon a bond for the forthcoming of property taken in execution.
Mr. Ronold for the appellant
objected to the form of the bond, the condition of which is, “that the property shall be produced at the day of sale,” but appoints no place.
See monographic note on “Statutory Bonds” appended to Goolsby v. Strother, 21 Gratt. 107.

Opinion:
By the court —
'The act of Assembly requires that the defendant should give bond and security to have the property forthcoming at the day of sale, but is silent as to the place. — 'The omission therefore cannot vitiate the bond.
Judgment affirmed.
