Scire facias. The bond made ‍​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‍the basis of the final judgment recites that the principal stands ‍​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‍charged by indictment with the offense of “unlawfully selling mortgaged property.”

This recites ‍​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‍no offense against the law, and hence the bail bond is ‍​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‍invalid and will not support a judgment.
