above.) The said J.D., therefore, prays surety of the peace to be granted

has good cause to fear, that the said R.F. will beat, etc., (as above),
against the form of the statute in such case made and provided, and
against the peace and dignity of the state of Minnesota, * and prays that
the said R.F. may be arrested and dealt with according to law.
