Before:
Breese
Mr. Justice Breese

delivered the opinion of the Court:

We are of opinion that process against ‍​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‍a garnishee, in aid of a suit at law, wherein an execution has been returned “ nulla Iona,” is not original process, and therefore, under the excise law, ‍​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‍was not required to be stamped. Mich. Central R. R. v. Keohane, 31 Ill. 147.

Upon the other point, dismissing the interpleader of Susan-nah Adams, we see no error. Her ‍​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‍claim is not embraced in the act of eighteen hundred and sixty-one, to protect married women in their separate property. That act applies only to property real ‍​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‍and personal, and the rents, issues, increase and profits thereof, but not to her earnings—they belong to the husband, and he alone is entitled to them. Sess. Laws, ‍​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‍1861, p. 143.

Perceiving no error in the record, the judgment must be affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
