Opinion

By the court.

Martz and his wife oughthonestly to comply with their contract, and come with an ill grace before us. Another objection occurs, which has great weight. We have no jurisdiction in this summary mode to discharge either the husband or wife arrested by process out of the Common Pleas, and they must therefore be remanded.
