Attachments.

Ibid. sec. 41. 1888, art. 52, sec. 39. 1860, art. 51, sec. 39. 1849, ch. 269, sec 1.

1852, ch. 276, sec. 2.

43. Any person making the affidavit and exhibiting the proofs and

attachment issued by a justice of the peace against such debtor, if the
cause of action does not exceed one hundred dollars.

Cited but not construed in Weed v. Lewis, 80 Md. 128.

See sections 6 and 71 and notes.

See art. 9, sections 31, 32 and 43.

Ibid. sec. 42. 1888, art. 52, sec. 40. 1860, art. 51, sec. 40. 1849, ch. 269, sec. 1.

44. Such attachment shall be returnable before the justice who
issued the same upon a day certain to be named therein, not less than
twenty nor more than thirty days from the date of the issuing thereof.

Ibid. sec. 43. 1888, art. 52, sec. 41. 1860, art. 51, sec. 41. 1849, ch. 269, sec. 1.

45. The plaintiff, at the time of issuing the attachment, shall give
notice by setting up at three or more of the most public places in the
election district or ward in which such attachment may issue, at least
ten days before the return day thereof, an affidavit of the truth of his
claim, together with a copy of such claim, and also a copy of such
attachment.

The decision in Campbell v. Webb, 11 Md. 480, to the effect that the short-
note was essential and the notice prescribed by the act of 1849, ch. 269, was
no longer required, is not now law by reason of the omission from the
code of 1860 and subsequent codes of the act of 1852, ch. 239, thus leaving the
former act still in force.

Ibid. sec. 44. 1888, art. 52, sec. 42. 1860, art. 51, sec. 42. 1849, ch. 269, sec. 1.

46. If the defendant or the garnishee in whose hands property may
be attached shall not show cause to the contrary, the justice may con-
demn such property; provided, he is satisfied by the oath of the plain-
tiff or by other proof that the notice required above has been given.
Cited but not construed in Weed v. Lewis, 80 Md. 129.
