Opinions

[212]*212Gillespie, J.

This appeal involves implied covenants to develop, and to protect leased premises against drainage by appellants’ oil well on adjoining land. Complainants below were the royalty owners under an oil and gas lease and the defendants below were the lessees under an oil and gas lease'. From an adverse decree awarding complainants a money judgment for breach of said implied covenants and the cancellation of the oil and gas lease as to certain lands, defendants appeal.

The lease involved in this litigation was executed on July 17, 1954, by James B. Sykes and wife,-two of the appellees, to Tip Ray for a ten-year primary period, covering 940 acres of land. By assignment the appellants became the lessees of all of the land involved in this suit
