Opinion of the Court
Per Curiam:
In this case Mr. Justice Terrell, Mr. Justice Brown and Mr. Justice Davis are of opinion that the decree of the Circuit Court should be affirmed while Mr. Chief Justice Buford and Mr. Justice Whitfield, Mr. Justice Ellis are of opinion that the decree should be reversed. When the members of the Supreme Court are sitting sis members in a body and after full consultation, it appears that the members of the court are permanently and equally divided in opinion as to whether the decree should be affirmed or reversed, and there is no prospect of an immediate change in the personnel of the court, the decree should be affirmed; therefore it is considered, ordered and adjudged under the authority of State ex rel.
Hampton v. McClung, 47 Fla. 224 , 37 South. Rep. 51 , that the decree of the Circuit Court in this cause be and the same is hereby affirmed.
Bueord, C.J., and Whiteield, Ellis, Terrell, Brown and Davis, J.J., concur.
