October Term, 1926.
Present: Watson, C. J., Powers, Slack, and Fish, JJ., and Moulton, Supr. J.

Opinion:
Watson, C. J.
The decretal order, dated July 27, 1926, was final in character. No written motion for an appeal was filed by the defendants or either of them within twenty days from the date of that order, as by statute was essential to the bringing of the case to this Court for review. G. L. 1561; Gove v. Gove's Admr., 87 Vt. 468, 89 Atl. 868; Bragg v. Newton, 98 Vt. 102, 126 Atl. 494. The cuse is therefore not here, but remains in the court of chancery. Ludlow Savings Bank & Trust Co. v. Knight, 91 Vt. 172, 99 Atl. 633. As this appears on the face of the papers, we dismiss the exceptions on our own motion. Page v. Page's Admr., 91 Vt. 188, 99 Atl. 780; Jones v. Stearns, Admr., 96 Vt. 138, 117 Atl. 663.
Exceptions dismissed with costs.
