1Opinion of the CourtMcClain, J.

It is not necessary to explain the nature of the claims of plaintiff Lewis Russ, as trustee, to the property in controversy. Prior to the transactions hereafter referred to, it belonged to his son L. D. Russ, who, though a man of middle age, was residing with his father in Chicago, as a member of his family, such ownership being subject only to the conditions of a trust deed to plaintiff, which conditions need not here be described. Since the action was brought, B. S. Russ has been substituted as trustee. The interests of the Russes are identical, and L. D. Russ will be treated as plaintiff. .
