The issues appear sufficiently in the opinion filed in the Court of Chancery. We agree that the facts of the case bring it within the classifications noted in Hart v. Leonard 42 N. J. Eq. 416, wherein equity may decree injunctive assistance to protect and enforce legal rights in real estate. The decree (1) struck frivolous portions of the answer, (2) determined that the defendants’ premises were charged with certain uses in favor of complainant’s property, (3) finally enjoined the defendants from obstructing those uses, (4) particularized the rights of complainant and (5) fixed counsel fees.

On the motion to strike both sides seem to have relied upon the ex parte affidavits presented on the rule to show cause why preliminary injunction should not issue. Appellants do not question that phase of-the procedure. Their contention thereon is that the proofs so submitted raised an issue which ¿should have taken the case to final hearing; but we think otherwise. What they look upon as. controlling allegations of fact we regard as merely argumentative disputes concerning the legal significance of the admitted allegations of the bill. A' legal and not a factual controversy was presented; and the legal contentions thus asserted were not well founded. Therefore the motion to strike was properly granted. Western Realty Co. v. Kassoff, 100 N. J. Eq. 325.

As to the remaining points of the decision Ave do not understand that the Vice-Chancellor rested his final award upon the preliminary informal affidavits; and Avliether he did or did not' Ave have given those affidavits no weight in that respect. The bill and the remaining parts of the ansAver are sufficient to that end. R. S. 2:29-46. It was unnecessary, in Anew of the comprehensive allegations of the bill and the admissions in the ansAver, to enter an interlocutory decree and to proceed thereon AAdth summary proofs to support the bill.

The allowance of $250 to the solicitor and counsel for the complainant was reasonable and proper.

> The decree below will be affirmed and, subject to this notation, for the reasons stated by the Vice-Chancellor.

For affirmance — The Ci-iiee-Justice, Parker, Case, Bodine, Donges, PIeher, Peeskte, Porter, Colie, Dear, Wells, Raeeerty,- Hague; Thompson, JJ. 14.

For reversal — None.
