    Heyer and Bremner v. David Wilson.
    If the marshal upon a capias ad respondendum he amerced debt and costs nisi, the defendant may, on or before the next term give bail and exonerate the marshal.
    If the bill of exchange, which was the original cause of action be lost, it is sufficient (in order to amerce the marshal in the whole amount of debt and costs, for not bringing in the defendant arrested upon a capias ad respondendum,) to tender to the marshal an assignment of the right of action upon the bill, and that assignment may he made by the attorney and agent of the plaintiff.
