71 N.C. 194 | N.C. | 1874
The facts, so far as are necessary to an understanding of the opinion, are as follows:
This action was begun before a Justice of the Peace against the defendant, Rousseau, Treasurer of Wilkes County, and the sureties upon his official bond for the year 1870. It was admitted that Rousseau was the treasurer, and the execution of the bond by himself and the defendants as his sureties, in the sum of $12,000 was also admitted.
The action was brought upon a county order for $125.80, which was the sum claimed for damages by reason of the breach of the bond.
