Craigen et al. v. Thorn et al. [++]
SYLLABUS
The transcript of the record, in this case, not having been brought up within two terms after the appeal granted, the appellees' counsel moved to dismiss the appeal; which was opposed by the counsel for the appellants, on the ground that, although he had used every exertion to obtain the necessary information from his client as to the causes which produced the delay in sending up the record, yet his remote situation had prevented him from acquiring the information sought, through the medium of the post-office.
