1Opinion of the CourtClark, C. J.
Tbis is a contest over some timber lands, lying on Cbeoab and Tennessee rivers in Grabam County. Tbe plaintiffs’ chief claim is under an entry numbered 920 and tbe defendants’ under entry number 1035. These entries were of “Cherokee” lands, and were both made 1 June, 1853, the first day these lands were opened to entry. Entry 1035 embraced a large scope of country and specified that eight other entries already made were excepted. After excepting entry 920 and other entries, as found by the referee, the acreage left to the defendants, claiming under 1035, comes up to that specified therein.
