Opinion

Buchanan, «L,

delivered the opinion of the court.

The amount involved in this appeal is the difference between the debt asserted by the appellant in the lower court, and the amount paid upon it by sales of land made in that court. That difference being less than $500, this court has no jurisdiction, and, although no objection was made by the appellees upon the hearing to the jurisdiction of the court, the appeal must be dismissed as improvidently awarded.
