Commonwealth v. Basendorf
153 Pa. 459
Pa.
1893
Check Treatment
Per Curiam,

We think the court below was right in entering judgment for want of a sufficient affidavit of defence. The magistrate had the right to take the recognizance, and the short entry of “ Recognizance forfeited, May 5, 1891,” is conclusive in this case that the defendant and the bail were called and did not appear.

Judgment affirmed.
