Syllabus

<p>Wages — Not liable to foreign attachment.</p> <p>Wages of labor are nqt liable to foreign attachment. The rule that nonresident debtors are not entitled to the benefit of our exemption law does not apply because the Act of April 15, 1845, P. L. 459, forbids the taking of jurisdiction over the subject-matter.</p> <p>Appeals — Record—Presumption of regularity — Order dissolving foreign attachment.</p> <p>Where, in the exercise of its discretionary power to grant summary relief, the court acts on extrinsic evidence and quashes a writ of foreign attachment the presumption is that everything was done rightly and according to law. All that is brought up on appeal is the record, and the affidavits and depositions read on the hearing of the motion are not part of the record. Nicholl v. McCaffrey, 1 Pa. Superior Ct. 187.</p>
