Wheeeas, The period of twenty days fixed by sectioñ 3 of the Act governing appeals from .decisions of registrars of property, approved March 1, 1902 (Revised Statutes, sec. 801), for presenting to this court the documents refused admission to record, is equivalent to fixing a time within which the appeal must be taken and therefore the said period of time cannot be extended,
The motion of the appellant is
Overruled.
