1Opinion of the Court
Mabry, J.:
According to the allegations of the bill before us,, the acts, against the doing of which an injunction was., sought and obtained, amounted to a trespass upon real estate.

The case arose and was determined in the Circuit Court before the enactment of Chapter 3884, laws of 1889, and must be disposed of independently of the provisions of that act.
