CRANCH, Chief Judge,

said that this court had entertained jurisdiction, by certiorari, in forcible entry and detainer in several cases, and referred to the case of U. S. v. Donahoo [Case No. 14,982], in this court, at December term, 1S07; and the case of the Lord Proprietary v. Brown, 1 Har. & McH. 428.

THE COURT (THRUSTON, Circuit Judge, absent) quashed the inquisition for uncertainty in the description of the property. “Tenement or storehouse” is too vague.
