1Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Valentine, J.:

This is a proceeding in error instituted for the purpose of reversing an order of the district court setting aside a sheriff’s sale. The proceeding might properly be dismissed from this court, for the reason that the plaintiffs in error have not made Hoag, the defendant below, a party in this court. Of course, we would not reverse the order of the court below without first giving the defendant below an opportunity to be heard. But as we expect to affirm the order of the court below, we shall do so without prejudice to his rights.
