Ledbetter v. Swing
19 Tex. 242
Tex.
1857
Check Treatment
Wheeler, J.

The petition was rightly dismissed for the want of a bond. (Hart. Dig. Art. 1753 ; 4 Tex. R. 1, 83.) The Statute makes no exception in favor of administrators. The provision dispensing with security in appeals by executors and administrators, does not extend the exemption to proceedings by certiorari. (Hart. Dig. Art. 804.) And the Court cannot give it such application by construction. The judgment is affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
