Counsel

Spencer and James Scott, for tbe defendant,

Williamson ex rel. Wallis v. Perkins

Opinion of the Court

The Court.

The return on the fieri facias is defective for want of a specification of the property; and the endorsement, by way of assignment, of the judgment from Williamson to Wallis, is an acknowledgment of satisfaction by the plaintiff from the defendant,' through Wallis, in express terms, and appears as part of the return itself; and this idea is confirmed by the sheriff’s return on the venditioni expo-* nis, “countermanded by plaintiff.”

YeNDITIONI EXPONAS AND RETURN QUASHED.
