Opinion:
Per Curiam.
In this cause Mr. Justice Buford, Mr. Justice Brown and Mr. Justice Chapman are of the opinion that the decree in this cause should be reversed while Mr. Justice Terrell, Mr. Justice Whitfield and Mr. Justice Ti-iomas are of the opinion that the said decree should be affirmed. When the members of the Supreme Court sitting six members in a body and after full consideration, it appears that the members of the Court are permanently and equally divided in opinion as to whether the decree should be affirmed or reversed, and there is no prospect of an immediate change in the personnel of the Court, the decree should be affirmed; therefore it is considered, ordered and decreed under the authority of State ex rel. Hampton v. McClung, 47 Fla. 224, 37 So. R. 51, that the decree of the Circuit Court in this cause be and the same is hereby affirmed.
Affirmed.
Terrell, C. J., Wi-iitfield, Brown, Buford, Chapman and Thomas, J. J., concur.
