   Mr. Justice Carnes

delivered the opinion of the court.

3. Injunction, § 177*—when allegations of fact insufficient. Allegations of fact relied on in support of a bill for injunction should rest on clear averments and not on inference.

4. Injunction, § 384*—when assignments of error as granting injunction disregarded; Where, on an application for an interlocutory injunction to restrain an assignee of a note charged with notice of its fraudulent character from obtaining possession of such note while held by a hank for collection, a temporary injunction issued without notice and the prayer and order for appeal were only from the order denying the motion to dissolve, held that assignments of error directed to alleged error in granting the injunction would be disregarded.

5. Injunction, § 50*—when order refusing to dissolve temporary injunction against obtaining possession of note by assignee not disturbed. On an application to restrain the defendant, as assignee of a note charged with notice of its fraudulent character, from obtaining possession of such note, where It was contended that the note having been purchased before maturity and past due when the bill was filed, a court of equity would not interfere because the defendant could not cut off defenses by an assignment of the note, held that the order refusing to dissolve the injunction should not he disturbed.

6. Injunction, § 11 —when order refusing to dissolve temporary injunction not disturbed. Where, on an application for a temporary injunction to restrain the collection of a note by an assignee charged with notice of its fraudulent character, it appeared that the defendant would not be deprived of any right while the note was im-, pounded, while on the other hand the complainant might he put to loss if the defendant were permitted to get possession of the note, held that the order refusing to dissolve the injunction should not he disturbed.
