¶1— That portion of the answer of the garnishee which it is alone important to consider, is to the following effect: “That he has in his possession the sum of two hundred and seventy-two dollars and eighty-one cents, which he received for a certain quantity of cotton, which he sold at the request of Richard Jones, to whom, as he was (old by said Jones, said cotton had been transferred by W. Naylors, in payment of a debt. Garnishee was Instructed by tTie said .Jones to pay the said money to him, the said Jones. The said Jones stated in presence of this garnishee, that the said money was to go to Daniel Davis: but on what account, garnishee does not know."
¶2It does not appear, from this answer that Davis has any title to this money. Fur aught that appears, Jones intended to pay it in discharge of a debt. Had Davis notified the garnishee that lie set up a claim to .the money in his hands, it would not have been proper to have rendered a judgment against the garnishee, on his answer alone. But concluding, as we do, that the answer discloses that the money in the hands of the garnishee, was the property of Jones, the judgment of the court below must be affirmed.
