Tort for the conversion of a horse. At the trial in the Superior Court, before Bond, J., there was evidence tending to show that the defendant, as constable, attached a horse on a writ against Patrick O’Connor as his property. The plaintiff introduced in evidence a bill of sale of the horse to him from O’Connor, who was his brother in law.

Field, C. J.

¶1The exceptions do not show what the contents of the bill of sale were, or what the conversation testified to was, *418and we cannot say that the evidence was incompetent, or, if it was, that the defendant has been prejudiced by the admission, of it. Exceptions overruled.
