The opinion

Walker, J.

There is no such appeal bond in this case as the law requires. The obligation of the sureties covers but one-half of the amount of the bond.

The bond only, requires the attendance of the principal at that term of the court, being held at the time the bond was taken.

There is no obligation to appear at the next term of the court, to abide the judgment of the Supreme Court.

The appeal is dismissed.

Dismissed.
