Appeal from Twenty-Second Judicial District Court, Parish of East Baton Rouge; H. F. Brunot, Judge. Suit by John P. Salassi and another against Mrs. Lillie McConnell Dougherty and others. Judgment for defendants, and plaintiffs appeal.

1Opinion of the CourtProvosty, J.

This is one of a number of similar suits brought against the widow and heirs of Nolan Stewart Dougherty, and is controlled by the case of Cleneay et al. v. Dougherty, reported in 135 La. 346, 65 South. 485.

Appellants have apparently abandoned the case, as they have filed no brief and made no appearance in this, court.

Therefore the judgment of the lower court is affirmed.
