Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

We find no error in this record. Appellant’s claim depended on a question of fact, which appears to have been rightly determined in favor of the appellees. All that is necessary to be said on the subject will be found in the opinion of the court below. For reasons therein stated the decree should not be disturbed.

Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed with costs to be paid by appellant.
