Syllabus

<p>Judgment — Default—Vacation—Service of Process — Burden of Proof — Evidence—Sufficiency. A default judgment entered upon false proof of service cannot be set aside for want of jurisdiction, where it appears that there was a further valid service of process, although no proof thereof was made before judgment; and the burden of proof is upon the defendant to show that no valid service was made.</p> <p>Process — Service—Who May Make. That the server of process was over twenty-one years of age sufficiently appears where he testified that he had been a practicing attorney for thirty years.</p> <p>Execution — Sale — Publication of Notice — Confirmation — Waiver of Objections. The order confirming an execution sale, without objection made, cures any defects in the matter of publishing notice of the sale.</p>
