Syllabus

<p>A Month.—The month contemplated by the statutes of this State is a calendar not a lunar month.</p> <p>Publication of Summons.—A publication of a summons weekly against a nonresident defendant, commencing on the 10th day of January, and ending on the 9th day of April, is a publication of three full calendar months, and the first day of the forty within which the defendant is required to answer is the 10 th of April.</p> <p>Idem.—If the last day of the publication of a summons is in the same week in which the three months expires, the publication is sufficient to give the Court jurisdiction, although this day is less than three months from the first day of publication.</p> <p>Publication of Summons on Sunday.—If some of the publications of a summons, including the last, are made on Sunday, in the regular issues of the paper, it does not vitiate the service.</p>
