Opinion of the Court

Mr. Justice NELSON

subsequently delivered the opinion of the court, to the effect, that as to the entry which the court on motion allowed to be made in the journal nunc pro tunc, as the matter was one which arose from the inadvertence of the clerk, the entry was but common practice and matter of course, and that the amendment to the marshal's return was of daily practice also.
