On motion to dismiss appeal, John T. Barnett, Protestant.
Messrs. Crump & Allen, Mr. J. E. McCall, for appellant.
Messrs. Stuart & Murray, for appellee.

Opinion:
Per curiam.
Appellant moves to dismiss tlie appeal. Against granting said motion protest is filed by an attorney representing some of the heirs of the estate, for which, appellant is administratrix de bonis non. The protest is-not supported by any showing sufficient to justify a denial of the right of the administratrix to control this litigation. The protest is overruled and the motion to dismiss the appeal is granted.
