Opinion
(Spring Riding, 1802.)
A nonresident can sue in the courts of this State.
If a known agent, residing here, of a person residing abroad, sue a man here in the name of his principal, it is well; or if he sue in consequence of a letter written to him, it is well, also. Therefore, Carr cannot be discharged from arrest; it is legal, and the habeas corpus must be denied.
NOTE. — See Fitzpatrick v. Neal, ante, 8, and the note thereto.
