1Opinion of the CourtErwin, C. J.

This action was brought by appellees against appellant asking for partition of real estate on a complaint in one paragraph. To this complaint a demurrer for want of facts was filed and overruled by the trial court. Appellant filed an answer in two para*418graphs, to which appellees demurred for want of facts, which demurrer was sustained and the court entered judgment for appellees decreeing partition, and from this judgment the appeal is prayed. The question for decision in this case is presented by the two paragraphs of answer and the court’s ruling in sustaining a demurrer thereto.
