Opinion of the Court

Judge Bkooke,

delivered the opinion of the court,* that it was error to dissolve the injunction, until the cloud, resting on the title in consequence of the claim of Ross, was removed. Therefore, it is decreed and ordered, that the order aforesaid be reversed and annulled j and that the injunction be re-instated, and the cause remanded to the court of chancery, to be further proceeded in.

Judge Roane absent from indisposition.
