Syllabus

<p>Corporations — Foreign Corporations — Service of Process.</p> <p>When a foreign corporation conducts a regular business in this state at a permanent place of business, a service of process made at such place-of business upon its agent in connection with- a matter growing out of said business is good, if the same service would be good as against a domestic corporation. Act No. 41, of 1894, requiring surety companies of other states and of foreign countries to appoint an agent upon whom service of process may be made, and Act No. 105, p. 132, of 1898, authorizing service to be made upon the Secretary of State, did not provide an exclusive, but an additional, mode of service.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
