1Opinion of the CourtChief Justice Waite
This, like Stringfellow v. Cain (supra, p. 610), was a statu tory proceeding begun in the Probate Court of Salt Lake Comity, Utah, to settle disputes between claimants as to their respective rights to a lot in Salt Lake City, purchased by the mayor of the city from the United States, in trust, under the Town-Site Act of March 2,1867,14 Stat. 541. As doubts were entertained in respect to the proper manner of bringing it here for review, an appeal was taken and a writ of error sued out. For the reasons stated in that case, the appeal is sustained and the writ of error dismissed.
