Thomas, J.,

delivered the opinion of the Court.

We have said in No. 35 Appeals, * for the reasons therein stated, that the Court below had no jurisdiction to grant the relief prayed in the petition of the Maryland Trust. Company. For the same reason the Court below had no authority to entertain the petition of the appellant in this case.
