   Opinion of the Court by

Chief Justice Clarke

Reversing.

This is an appeal by the defendant from a judgment sustaining a demurrer to his answer and counterclaim and dismissing same.

As counsel for appellee concedes this was error for which the judgment must be reversed and moves that the appeal be disposed of as speedily as possible, the motion to advance is sustained, the judgment reversed and the cause remanded for preparation and trial on the merits.
