Thompson v. Circuit Judge
Michigan Supreme Court
Thompson v. Circuit Judge, 54 Mich. 236 (Mich. 1884)
19 N.W. 967
Thompson v. Circuit Judge
Opinion of the Court
An affidavit for publication in a chancery cause which merely states that the affiant cannot find the defendant in the State by reason of his absence from the State or of his concealment within it, is not sufficient. The affidavit should state the facts of inquiry and investigation, so that the court can see that the conclusion that the party cannot be found for the reason stated is a reasonable one upon such facts.
