A synopsis of the bill of complaint, together with the opinion of this Court on the first appeal, is set forth in Hummell v. Harrington, 92 Fla. 87, 109 So. R. 320. There was an appeal in the case by Harriet Harrington, one of the appellants here, from an order of the court striking out sundry parts of her separate answer. The order striking parts of her answer was affirmed by this Court in Harrington v. Hummell, 94 Fla. 1194, 116 So. R. 479.

All assignments of error have been thoroughly presented and we have examined the basis of each carefully and have inspected and considered the entire record, and conclude that there is no error in the decree appealed from.
