Appeal from Circuit Court, Jasper County; Hugh Dabbs, Judge.
Petition of Hannah M. Kingston for review of an action by the Miners' Bank against petitioner and T. H. Kingston. From a judgment for petitioner, the bank appeals. Affirmed.
This cause is here upon appeal by the plaintiff from a judgment of the circuit court of Jasper county, Mo., sustaining a petition for review and setting aside a judgment rendered in an attachment proceeding in favor of the plaintiff and against these defendants.
This is an action instituted by petition in the circuit court of Jasper county, before the Honorable Hugh Dabbs, on the 25th day of November, 1903, for review of a judgment rendered in said cause on the 4th day of March, 1903, which said judgment was in favor of the Miners' Bank against T. H. Kingston and Hannah M. Kingston, partners doing business under the firm name of T. H. Kingston & Co., wherein the Miners' Bank brought suit by attachment and attached a lot and a part of another lot in the city of Joplin to satisfy a claim against T. H. Kingston & Co. for the sum of $457.35. The plaintiff in the attachment suit brought its suit on the 14th day of June, 1902. In its petition it alleged that the defendants were nonresidents of the state of Missouri, and also in its affidavit for attachment alleged that the defendants were nonresidents of the state of Missouri, and as a second ground of attachment that T. H. Kingston had fraudulently conveyed his property and effects so as to hinder and delay his creditors. The case was returnable to the September term, 1902. The clerk omitted to issue an order of publication for that term. At the September term, 1902, an order of publication was obtained against the said defendant, returnable to the March term, 1903. The real estate, lot 37 and the south 30 feet of lot 36 in Gray's Second addition to Joplin, was attached on the 14th day of June, 1902. On January 2, 1903, the sheriff of Jasper county served a notice upon M. B. Coburn and Annette Coburn, notifying them that those lots had been attached and levied upon by virtue of a writ of attachment which was originally returnable to the September term, 1902, and that the property was attached as the property of T. H. Kingston and Hannah M. Kingston; but, owing to the fact of the failure to obtain service upon the defendants by publication, that the same would be triable at the March term, 1903. Publication was made in due form more than 15 days before the first day of the March term, 1903. The real estate was afterwards sold under special execution. Then, on the 25th day of November, 1903, the defendant Hannah M. Kingston instituted suit against the plaintiff for a review of judgment. In her petition she alleged The petition was sworn to. The answer of the defendant admitted that at the March term, 1903, it obtained a judgment against Hannah M. Kingston for $438.08 on the first count and $40 on the second count; admitted that the suit in which judgment was obtained was an attachment suit brought against Hannah M. Kingston and T. H. Kingston, and that in said suit caused to be levied upon lots 37 and south 30 feet of lot 36 in Gray's addition to the city of Joplin; admitted that said plaintiff in said petition alleged, among other things, that said defendants, and each of them, were nonresidents of the state of Missouri, and could not be served with process in this state; admitted that the order of publication in due form was thereupon issued and the same was duly published in the Joplin Globe, a newspaper published in Joplin, at least once a week for four consecutive weeks, the last publication being at least 15 days before the March term, 1903, of this court; admitted that the plaintiff so obtained constructive service upon the defendants to this suit, and the plaintiff admitted that no summons was served upon defendant in person and no appearance was made for her by any one, and that judgment was rendered upon her failure to appear and plead. The plaintiff denied the other allegations in said defendants' petition for review. At the June term, 1904, the...
