Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The appeal presents the sole question whether the District Court, notwithstanding a procedural defect in the initiation of the steps leading to the decree, was without jurisdiction to enter the decree. Being of opinion that in all the circumstances of the case the defect was an irregularity which did not deprive the court of jurisdiction, its decree is
Affirmed.
