In this cause Mr. Chief Justice Terrell, Mr. Justice Whitfield and Mr. Justice Buford are of the opinion that the decree in this cause should be reversed while Mr. Justice Brown, Mr. Justice Chapman and Mr. Justice Thomas are of the opinion that the said decree should be affirmed.

Hampton v. McClung, 47 Fla. 224, 37 So. R. 51, that the decree of the circuit court in this cause be and the same is hereby affirmed.

Affirmed.
