Fuller, C. J.:
This case was decided by the Circuit Court in favor of the State National Bank, upon the-facts, and after a patient investigation of the record, with the aid afforded by the arguments and briefs of counsel, we are unable to hold that the Circuit Court erred in the conclusions at which it arrived.
The decree will, therefore, be
Affirmed.
