1Opinion of the Court
Per Curiam,
If there were any merit in this appeal, the appellant would suffer for counsel’s gross violation of rule 34, relating to the statement of the question or questions involved. The violation of the rule in the present case consists in devoting thirty lines, covering a whole page, to what could have been intelligently stated in less than the prescribed limit. The appeal must be quashed: Duffee v. Bankers’ Surety Company, 247 Pa. 17.
Appeal quashed.
