Portrait of Samuel Freeman Miller Samuel Freeman Miller The Lucille (86 U.S. 73) — Opinion of the Court

An order affirming a decree in another court is neither in express terms nor by necessary implication a judgment or decree for the amount of the judgment or decree in that court. The costs of the lower court, and the interest on its judgment to the date of the decree or judgment on appeal, are to be added to it, and, though they may be computed by the clerk, they should have the judicial consideration of the court.
