    On August 28, 1896, an attachment under the act of 1869 was issued upon the following affidavit:
    “ Peter J. Brady, being duly sworn, deposes that lie is assistant manager of the H. B. Claflin Company, a corporation; that he makes this affidavit for said company; that Samuel White and O.

That the said Samuel White and 0. Fred Spate, liave assigned and are about to assign, dispose of, and remove their property, money and evidences of debt with intent to defraud their creditors and the said company, and that they fraudulently contracted said debt and incurred said obligation.”

On October 15, 1896, judgment -was entered against Samuel White for want of an affidavit of defense, and subsequently a fi. fa. issued upon which defendants’ property was sold.

      Charles J. Sharkey, for appellants.
    The affidavit was insufficient: Sharpless v. Ziegler, 92 Pa. 467; Biddle v. Black, 99 Pa. 380; Matthews v. Dalsheimer, 10 W. N. C. 371; Ferris v. Carlton, 8 Phila. 549; Adams v. Bailey, 17 W. N. C. 399; Netter v. Harding, 18 Pa. C. C. 353.
    
      Matthew JDittmann and Thomas R. JElaoek, for appellees,
    were not heard, but in their printed brief said: The motion to dissolve was too late: Schober v. Mather, 49 Pa. 21; Loewenstein v. Sheetz, 7 Phila. 361; Poor v. Colburn, 57 Pa. 415.
    An affidavit for an attachment, under the Act of March 17, 1869, P. L. 8, is sufficient if made in the words of the act without setting out specific acts of fraud: Sharpless v. Ziegler, 92 Pa. 467; Boyd v. Lippincott, 2 Pa. C. C. 585; Hall v. Kintz, 13 Pa. C. C. 24; Werner v. Gross, 174 Pa. 622; Hall v. Kintz, 12 Pa. C. C. 90.
    No appeal lies from a decree discharging defendant’s rule to show cause why a writ of attachment issued under the Act of March 17,1869, P. L. 8, should not be quashed and attachment dissolved: Lafferty v. Corcoran, 175 Pa. 5; Black v. Oblender, 135 Pa. 526; Wetherald v. Shupe, 109 Pa. 389; Walls v. Boteler, 23 W. N. C. 508; Hall v. Oyster, 168 Pa. 399.
    April 4, 1898:
   Per Curiam,

We are all of opinion that the court below was right in discharging the rule to dissolve the attachment in this case. There is nothing in either of -the specifications of error that requires discussion.

Judgment affirmed.
