By the whole Court.

The execution was not taken out till more than sixty days after the judgment, beyond the expiration of which time the attachment could not hold the property, and it became thereupon the duty of the officer, •or of whoever held the property under him, to restore it to the debtor (as the reeeiptman has done) and he would have been liable in trover had he refused.
