Opinions

Gould, Justice.

I see no cause for reversing this j udgment, unless it be that the attorney for the plaintiff served the summons, being specially deputized for that purpose. This, I am rather of opinion, is within the spirit of the statute, which forbids the constable who serves the summons to appear as counsel on the trial.

[282]*282I think the county court and justice’s judgment must be reversed.
