   In an action of debt, on a bond, in behalf of John Buford, assignee of John H. Pate & Co., against William *Hawes, a judgment was entered, and confirmed, in the clerk’s office of Bedford county, against the defendant, “and William Quarles, the security for his appearance,” who, thereupon, appealed to the ■district Court, and, the judgment being there affirmed, again appealed to this Court. The writ was not inserted in the transcript of the record; and it did not appear Whether any bail bond was taken.

Tuesday, December 22, the president pronounced the Court’s opinion, that both judgments be reversed, “because it does not appear, by the record, that the appellant was bail for the defendant, Hawes; there being no bail bond, () nor a copy thereof, which the law requires should be returned with the writ, and filed with the same in the clerk’s office.”
