The judgment of the County Court affirmed — ETot because the statute is any bar to this action; for every officer, who has collected money on an execution is liable to pay it over. But the demurrer runs back to the declaration; and by that it appears, that this money was collected and received as an officer, who- is not bound to carry it to- the creditor. The law provides no pay for his travel; the law therefore does not raise a promise, in such case, to pay until a demand is ma.de, and no special demand is laid in the declaration, and for this fault in the declaration, the judgment was affirmed.

UpLaw has not yet analyzed Church v. Clark. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.
