                         Paul Barringer, Defendant.

This day day came the said complainant, by his solicitor; and it appearing

proceedings on a certain judgement at law, in favor of the said Paul         
Barringer, against the said complainant, for the sum of four hundred and     
fifty dollars debt, and three hundred dollars damages, and costs of suit,    
obtained at the September term of our Pike circuit court, in the year        
eighteen hundred and thirty-seven.

entered accordingly.                                                         
                                                                             
And, it is further ordered that a copy of this order be published in some
