A cautioner in loosing of arrestment being pursued for payment of the debt after it was constituted against the principal debtor, the oath of the person in whose hand the arrestment had been laid was found a good proof of what he was owing to the common debtor at the time of the arrestment, in order to make the defender liable for the same.
