Supreme Court of South Carolina·Decided January 15, 1823·Published

Opinion

Mr. Justice Johnson

delivered the opinion of the court:

I am not aware of any law that requires the publication of a citation in the newspapers, and none such has been adduced. The mode resorted to in this case has been immemorially and almost universally practised.

The motion must be refused.

Justices Colcock, Nott and Huger, concurred.
