1Opinion of the CourtPearce, J.
This is an appeal from a decree of the Circuit Court of Baltimore City, making perpetual an injunction previously granted by that Court, and also adjudging both defendants to be guilty of contempt in violating the terms of the preliminary injunction outstanding, and ordering that the defendant corporation forfeit and pay a fine of one hundred dollars as a penalty for having violated said injunction.
The three plaintiffs are residents of a suburban settlement in Baltimore County, called Bognel Heights, just beyond the western limits of Baltimore City, and are owners of real estate located there.
