It also filed a cross-complaint, setting up title to the property, and demanding that title to the same be quieted in the church society, which it withdrew at the close of the evidence. The court, at the request of one of the parties, made a special finding of facts and stated its conclusions of law thereon. Over appellants’ motion for a new trial judgment, in accordance with the conclusions of law, was rendered.
