Head Matter:
Love and Others v. Mikals, Administrator.
Friday, June 10.
APPEAL from the Bartholomew Court of Common Pleas.
N. T. Hauser, R. Hill, and W. Singleton, for the appellants.
W. F. Piclgeon, for the appellee.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Mikals, as administrator, filed his petition praying for an order to sell certain real estate of his intestate, to pay debts, &c. An order was granted, from which the defendants appeal. The appeal is prematurely taken, and cannot be sustained. The order for the sale is not a "final judgment" from which an appeal lies, under the provisions of § 556, 2 R. S. p. 159. This was settled in the case -of Staley v. Dorset, 11 Ind. R. 367. That case was like the present, and must govern it.
The appeal is dismissed with costs.
