Counsel for appellant in their brief concede, as we understand it, that their contention in the instant case would require that the opinion in the Jenkins Case, supra, be overruled. We are cited to no authority which has questioned the soundness of that decision, and we are unwilling to depart therefrom. It must therefore result that the bill was sufficient, and the decree of the chancellor is accordingly affirmed.
Affirmed.
