    (1) Abduction. Remedies. Forms of Action. Gase. Trespass.
    
    While case is a proper form of action for abducting the plaintiff’s daughter, trespass is also an appropriate remedy.
    Trespass for the abductiou of the plaintiff’s daughter. Certified from the Common Pleas Division and heard on substantial demurrer to the declaration.
   Per Curiam.

This is an action of trespass for the abduction of the plaintiff’s daughter. The defendants demur to the declaration, the ground of the demurrer being that the action should have been case and not trespass. Though the action might have been brought in case, trespass is also an appropriate remedy. 1 Chit. Pl. 16 Am. ed. 188; Chamberlain v. Hazelwood, 5 M. & W. 515; Ditcham v.
