1Opinion of the CourtChief Justice Lawrence
This was an action of replevin, brought by Elizabeth Hay against John E. Hayes, to recover three horses. The defendant pleaded that he was sheriff, and had seized the horses by virtue of certain executions against plaintiff’s husband. The verdict and judgment were for the defendant.
Counsel for appellant insist that the court erred in overruling a motion to strike certain pleas from the files, but this motion was not preserved in the bill of exceptions. Motions of this character, and the decision of the court thereon, are made a part of the record only hy a bill of exceptions.
