1Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Mr. Justice Roberts,

This appeal is from a determination of the court below that A. C. Thompson and the appellee acquired title to certain parcels of land described in a deed from Clarence J. Semple dated September 29, 1956, as joint tenants with the right of survivorship. The sole question presented for our consideration is whether the trial court was correct in holding that this deed to William J. M. Thompson and A. C. Thompson, brothers, as “tenants by the entireties” in fact created a joint tenancy with right of survivorship or, as appellant contends, a tenancy in common.
