    BUCKNOR’S APPEAL.
    An administrator can not appeal from an order of the Orphans5-Court directing him to make sale for payment of debts.
    Appeal from Orphans’ Court of Philadelphia County,. No. 139 July Term, 1884.
    
      .. The decree appealed from was that Wm. EL Bucknor, administrator of A. J. Bucknor, forthwith expose the decedent’s real estate to public auction sale, for the purpose of paying debts, and make return thereof. Frank P. Moody, alleging that he is a judgment creditor of decedent, took a rule to quash the appeal, because the decree was not final; and, 2nd, the administrator could not appeal.
    
      Henry C. Terry, Esq., for rule,

C., 471; Gesell’s Appeal, 84 Pa., 238; Snodgrass’ Appeal, 96 Pa., 420; Eckfeldt’s Appeal, 13 Pa., 172.
