Opinion
We have carefully and repeatedly examined the record in this case, and find no error in it. The certificate of publication of the notice of the application for judgment differs from those we have held bad, in that it does not have the words, “exclusive of Sundays and holidays, ” but certifies that the notice has been published ten days consecutively, commencing with the 18th day of January, 1869. When such language is used in the certificate, as that the court can ascertain the date, of the first and last papers containing the notice, it is sufficient. There is nothing here to interrupt the court.
None of the evidence offered constitutes any defense. Plaintiff in error having called Harlmess as a witness, had no right to impeach him, by proving that he had made contrary statements out of court.
No error appearing in the record, the judgment of the court below must be affirmed.
Judgment affirmed.
