No. 46.
Thomas H. Dent, Administrator, v. James S. Swilley.
Argued October 19, 1927.
Decided October 24, 1927.
Mr. Wm. L. Houston, with whom Messrs. Winford H. Smith, Charles H. Bates and Thomas H. Dent, pro se, were on the brief, for plaintiff in error. Mr. Thomas B. Dupree was on the brief for defendant in error.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The writ of error is dismissed on the authority of § 237 of the Judicial Code, as amended by the act of February 13, 1925 (43 Stat. 936, 937), for lack of jurisdiction. Treating the writ of error as ,an application for certiorari, the certiorari is denied for want of a substantial Federal question on the authority of Tracy v. Ginzberg, 205 U. S. 170, 178; Bonner v. Gorman, 213 U. S. 86, 91; Central Land Co. v. Laidley, 159 U. S. 103, 112.
