EkkoR to reverse a decree in chancery, of the Oounty Court, Tomlinson et al. brought their petition in chancery against Warner et al. and Warner made a special plea in bar; to which a demurrer was given, and the County Court judged said plea insufficient and thereupon, without further inquiry, or finding any facts, proceeded to pass a final decree in the cause.
