PROM SUMNER. Appeal from Chancery Court of Sumner County. W. C. Dismukes, Sp. Ch.
1Opinion of the CourtLurton, J.
A number of subscribers to the original stock of the defendant company have joined in filing this bill for the purpose of enjoining suits at law upon their several contoacts of subscription.
The corporation, expressly waiving all questions of jurisdiction, answers and submits the liability of complainants to the judgment of the Court, and by cross-bill seeks a recovery against each of them.
The learned Chancellor was of opinion that no liability existed, and perpetually enjoined suits at law and dismissed the cross-bill. In support of this decree a number of propositions have been urged.
