Pee C ueram,
The exceptions filed by John T. Robbins to the adjudication of the auditing judge were taken into consideration and passed upon by the court in banc.

In a clear and concise opinion Judge Ashman sustained the adjudication which was approved by the judges constituting the court. The cases cited and considered by the court appear to support the conclusion arrived at. We, therefore, affirm the decree and dismiss the appeal.
