Brown, indicted for murder in the Superior Court of Banks county, Georgia, said bond payable to Charles J. Jenkins, Governor of Georgia, and his successors in office, for the sum of five thousand dollars, and by reason of the nonappearance of said Henry T. Brown said bond became forfeited; and in the year 1867, at the October term of Superior Court of Banks county, judgment was entered against the said William F. Attaway, Jesse Ginn and John M. Haynes for the amount of the bond, five thousand dollars, with cost of suit, William A. Brown, father of said Henry T.
