Syllabus

<p>1. Summons — Jurisdiction—Answer.—A trial justice summons required the defendant to appear, &c., on the twentieth day from service, exclusive of the day of service; the defendant appeared on return day, demurred, because summons did not give trial justice jurisdiction of defendant’s person, and answered. Held, that the appearance and answer waived the jurisdictional defect in the summons.</p>
