¶2The judgment was in favor of plaintiff for the sum of one thousand six hundred and seventy dollars and ten cents, together with one hundred and fifty dollars and ten cents for costs, etc. It should have been for twenty-six dollars and ten cents without costs.
¶3By the statute the Sheriff of Kern is entitled to be paid “for his trouble and expense in taking and keeping possession of and preserving property under attachment or execution, or other process, such sum as the Court shall order, provided that no more than three dollars per diem shall be allowed to *109a keeper.” (Stats. 1869-70, p. 158.)
