Opinion of the Court

By the court.

It is said, in this case, that the summons does not contain the substance of the declaration ; that the force and arms, and the time of the assault alleged in the declaration are omitted in the summons. But neither the time of the assault, nor the force and arms, are matters of substance. 1 Cbitty, 375 and 383. This summons contains all which the statute requires.
