dred and twenty dollars and seventy-two cents, payable six
months after date, with interest from date, for the hire of
one Noah Wade, who was arrested by sheriff of Floyd
county under a capias pro fine from county court of Mont-
gomery county and hired out under the statute; but the
said Fulcher, Phillips and Akers are to pay the costs of a

before the judge of the county court of Floyd county, who

or Akers. :
