delivered the opinion of the court.

In this case, the attorney-general filed with the clerk of the board of supervisors of Hancock county his petition for appeal from the assessment of the Edward Hines Yellow Pine Trustees for taxes for the year 1925, for the purpose of increasing that assessment. The appeal is prosecuted under chapter 120, Laws of 1918. The petitiou for appeal was almost identical in all the substantial details with the petitions filed in the cases of Knox v. Southern Paper Co. (Miss.), 108 So. 288, Knox v. L. N. Dantzler Lumber Co. (Miss.), 108 So. 290, and Knox v. Dantzler Shipbuilding & Dry Docks Co. (Miss.), 108 So. 290, in which cases the identical question here presented was before the court.

The Edward Hines Yellow Pine Trustees, upon the hearing of the case in the circu.it court, made a motion that the attorney-general be required to furnish a bill of particulars. The attorney-general’s position was that the copy of the assessment, made and filed as an exhibit to the petition, was a sufficient bill of particulars. The court, however, did not take the view of the attorney-general, and ordered that a bill of particulars be filed, which the attorney-general declined to do, and thereupon *894 judgment was entered upon the attorney-general’s- appeal by the circuit court, in favor of the Edward Hines Yellow Pine Trustees dismissing the appeal, and the attorney-general prosecutes an appeal here.

It was not necessary to file any further bill of particulars with the petition; and in this respect the court was in error. The petition, with the exhibits containing the assessments appealed from, called for an answer or pleading from the defendant. This case is ruled and con trolled by the case of Knox, Attorney-General, v. Soutern Paper Co., cited supra.

There is a cross-appeal here in which counsel for cross-appellant concedes that this court should affirm the lower court in overruling its motion to dismiss the attorney-general’s appeal from the assessment. So that no error being pointed out to us by cross-appellant upon this concession of counsel, the case will be affirmed on cross-appeal.

Reversed and remanded on direct appeal, and affirmed on cross-appeal.
