Head Matter:
Nellie T. McAvoy, as Executrix of Francis S. McAvoy, Deceased, Appellant, v. Sidney C. Schramme et al., Respondents, Impleaded with Others.
(Argued May 10, 1927;
decided May 20, 1927.)
Charles L. Craig for appellant.
Louis L. Archer and Elon S. Hobbs for respondents.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The provision of the contract that payment to the attorney shall be made in cash, though the property received by the client may be something other than cash, is inconsistent with an intention to make an equitable assignment.
The judgment should be affirmed with costs.
Cardozo, Ch. J., Pound, Crane, Andrews, Lehman, Kellogg and O'Brien, JJ., concur.
Judgment affirmed, etc.
