Opinion

Pee Cueiam:

While we do not by any means approve tbe reasons given by the learned judge of tbe court below for setting aside tbe sheriff’s sale, and think it would have been better to allow tbe acknowledgment of tbe sheriff’s deed, and thus permit tbe judgment creditor to have tested bis right by an action of ejectment, yet as tbe court, in setting aside tbe sale, did but exercise its lawful discretion, we cannot review that discretion on a writ of error.

Tbe writ is quashed.
