The decree in this case required the specific execution by Porter of a written obligation to J. S. Waterman, similar in. all respects to that of R. W.

Waterman, the sum of $5373.40 as the profits of the property agreed to be conveyed with the- interest that accrued thereon prior to January 10, 1888. The facts in this case do riot materially differ from those in the above case, and for the reasons stated in the above opinion the decree in this case must also be Reversed.
