1Opinion of the CourtBrent, J.

Pending a motion to quash the attachment in this case, leave was asked by the plaintiff to be allowed to amend the proceedings, by striking out the name of one of the defendants, J. Fenwick Young, “where it appears in the affidavit of the plaintiff, in the warrant of the justice of the peace directing the clerk to issue the writ, in the writ of attachment, and in all the proceedings in the case, so that by said amendment all the proceedings will show and read as a proceeding against Joseph N. Young alone, and as if the name of J. Fenwick Young had not been written and appeared there.”
