1Opinion of the CourtGardner, J.
The judgment by default will support the appeal, but the ruling denying appellant’s motion to set aside such judgment is not reviewable on said appeal. Ex parte Gay, 7 Div. 515 (W. O. W. v. Gay) ante, p. 5, 104 So. 898; Eminent Household v. Lockerd, 202 Ala. 330, 80 So. 412.
The ruling of the court in this respect is only reviewable as for an abuse of discretion ; the appropriate remedy in the instant case being by mandamus. Eminent Household v. Lockerd, supra; Ex parte Doak, 188 Ala. 406, 66 So. 64; Ex parte Gay, supra. Petition to this effect is presented with the record on this appeal.
