Mississippi Supreme Court · Decided October 15, 1883 · Campbell
61 Miss. 314

Delmas Bros. v. Morrison

Opinion of the Court

Campbell, C. J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

The debt incurred in conducting the business of a water-craft in some of the navigable waters of this State was a cause for attachment, but it was within the jurisdiction of a justice of the peace, and its existence affords no support to the attachment on the other claims. Wherefore, judgment was properly given for the defendant.

Judgment affirmed.
