[An Act to amend an Act entitled “An Act concerning Forcible Entries and Unlawful Detainers, and to repeal all other Acts on the same subject.”—Approved April 27, 1863. Approved March 11, 1872-took effect thirty days after passage.

SECTION 1. Section nine of said Act is hereby amended so as to read as follows:

SEC. 9. Upon filing with the county clerk of the proper county a complaint duly verified, the clerk shall at the request of the plaintiff or his attorney, issue a summons thereon directed to the defendant, requiring him to appear and answer in said action within three days after service of summons. The summons shall be served by delivering a copy thereof upon the occupant of the premises described in the complaint, or by leaving such copy on the premises in a conspicuous place. Any demurrer or other objection filed before answer may be heard on one day's notice, and a copy of any pleading filed by the defendant shall be served on the same day on the plaintiff or his attorney. If the demurrer be filed on the day for answering it shall be heard at once, or not later than 10 o'clock A.M. of the next day. If the demurrer be overruled, the defendant shall answer on the same day. If it be sustained, the plaintiff shall file an amended complaint within three days thereafter, and the defendant shall answer the same within three days after the service upon him or his attorney of a copy of the same. The answer shall be verified, and shall contain a specific denial of each material allegation of the complaint. At 10 o'clock A. M. on the day after the expiration of the time within which the defendant should answer the original com

plaint of plaintiff, the county judge shall attend at the county courtroom and open court; and if the defendant shall have failed to answer or demur to the complaint, he shall upon satisfactory proof thereof, order such judgment as shall be just in the premises. If the defendant shall have answered or demurred, the judge shall set a day for the trial of the action, which shall be within not more than two weeks from the day of service of the summons. If a jury shall have been demanded in writing, he shall order the clerk to issue a venire for a special trial jury to be summoned for the day fixed by the court. The jury shall be summoned in the same manner, and possess the qualifications and be subject to the same challenges as provided in section twenty-eight of an Act entitled an Act concerning Grand and Trial Jurors," approved April twenty-seventh, eighteen hundred and sixty-three. All proceedings other than the trial of the cause may be heard in chambers or in open court. If a jury be demanded, the demand shall be in writing, filed at the time of the issuance of the summons, if demanded by the plaintiff, or at the time of filing the answer or demurrer, if demanded by the defendant, and shall specify the number, not less than three, demanded. If the parties disagree as to the number of the jury, the Court shall determine the same. The demand in all cases shall be accompanied by the proper jury fee, otherwise a jury trial shall be deemed to have been waived,
