1Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

The question raised upon these appeals has been considered and passed upon in Martin v. Greenwood, 27 Pa. Superior Ct. 245, Caner v. Bergner, 27 Pa. Superior Ct. 220, Oil City Building & Loan Association v. Shanfelter, 29 Pa. Superior Ct. 251, and as we remarked in the recent cases of Haspel v. O’Brien and Haspel v.
