Caldcleugh v. Carey
5 Watts & Serg. 155
Opinion
The principle of this case was settled in M’Clure v. Foreman, (4 Watts éf Serg. 280), where it was held that one discharge serves for all. In the case at bar, the arrest in the county of the debtor’s residence was prior, in point of time, and the discharge from it preferable, in point of effect, to a discharge from an arrest abroad. A second discharge, therefore, would have been nugatory.
Judgment affirmed.
