'Argued October 15, 1886, before Gordon, Trunkey, Sterrett, and Green, JJ. October Term, 1886 No. 180, W. D. Error to the Common Pleas of Armstrong County to review a judgment on a verdict for plaintiff in an action of debt on a tax collector’s bond.
Affirmed · Decided 1886-11-01
¶1The county treasurer had no power to release the sureties from ■their obligation to the commonwealth, so that even had he intended to substitute Hill’s note for the bond, it would have amounted to nothing. Whether Kirkpatrick did or did not adopt one of the several seals to the bond as his own was properly left as a question for the jury.
¶2The judgment affirmed.
