Syllabus

<p>1. Constable’s bond—executed after twenty days from Ms election. The fact that the official bond of a constable was not given until nineteen months after his election, will not affect the validity of the bond; it will be presumed, from the mere fact of its execution, that such a bond was given because a former bond had become insufficient.</p> <p>2.
