Syllabus

<p>1, The revenue laws of the United States were suspended in the insurgent States during the rebellion ; and in many if not all instances, the acts of citizens of the insurgent States, done in forced compliance with the authority temporarily dominant therein, must be held valid.</p> <p>8. A judgment rendered in 1869 in a suit brought in this State in 1863 is not erroneous because no United States revenue stamp was affixed to the petition or other pleading or process in the cause.</p>
