Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.'

The decree below, affirmed by the decision of this court (182 Fed. 202), is one practically and substantially dismissing the complainant’s bill, which, as amended and re-engrossed, involved only the title to timber on 160 acres, to wit, the land claimed by the Drakes. The remainder of the tract, said to be owned by McShane, on which the complainant claims timber rights, was not involved in the'case, and it is not affected by the decree. The petition for rehearing is denied.
