    Margaret W. Newcomb vs. Charles O. Newcomb.
    The court will not issue an execution for alimony under St 1858, c. 47, without an affidavit that it is still unpaid, and notice to the respondent.
    Motion for an execution for alimony heretofore allowed by the court, and unpaid.
    
      N. Morse,
    in support of the motion, relied on St. 1858, c. 47, which gives this court the same powers for the enforcement of decrees of alimony “ as it has for the enforcement of judgments or decrees in equity; ” and urged that an execution should be issued at once, since a notice to the respondent might defeat the very object of the application.
   But the Court

were of opinion that this should not be done without notice ; and ordered that, on affidavit of the petitioner that the alimony had not been paid or discharged, a notice should issue to the respondent to appear in two days, to show cause why execution should not issue.
