Syllabus

<p>Appeal—from county to circuit court—trial de novo. An appeal from the county court to the circuit court, taken and perfected after the act of 1874 went into effect, must be governed by that law, and the trial must be de novo, and not by the provisions of the repealed law of 1872. If the appeal was perfected before the repealing law took effect, the practice under the prior law will govern.</p>
