1Opinion of the CourtJustice Fisher

From a judgment recovered against him by William L. Woolf, before a justice of the peace, James R. Battle appealed to the circuit court of Lauderdale county. This appeal was returned to the September term, 1846, of said circuit court, at which time the case was entered upon the docket and continued. It also appears to have been continued at the March term, 1847. No other proceeding appears to have been had till the March term, 1848, when a motion was made by Woolf to dismiss the appeal for want of sufficient, bond, which motion was sustained by the court.
