Opinion of the Court
There is a fatal error in this ease. The writ, which was made returnable August 6th, was returned, not personally served on defendant, August 5th. Afterwards the sheriff of his own motion made a farther return. This he could not do without leave of the court properly granted.
The judgment must be reversed with costs of both courts.
