1Opinion of the Court

Barratt, P. J.,

This matter comes before the court upon the petition of Ella T. Saunders, the individual answer of Thursa Warren, and *542the joint answer of Simon P. Saunders and Martha Saunders, his wife, and George Russ and Lulu Russ, his wife.

As the proceeding was initiated by the petition, and since no replication has been filed, the matter may properly be disposed of upon the petition and answers, with the effect of holding true all the matters set up in the respective answers. This is a familiar rule, and it is sufficient to refer to Stoner v. Railroad Co., 229 Pa. 521, 525 (1911).
