    ■ Under the opinion in this case it is unnecessary to make a statement of facts.
   McOLELLAN, C. J.

This is an (attempted) appeal from a decree overruling a motion to dismiss a cross bill for want of equity. The appeal is not authorized by statute. There is a statute authorizing an appeal from an interlocutory decree overruling a motion to dismiss a till for want of equity, (Code, § 427); but there is no statute providing for appeal from such decree in respect of a cross'bill. The appeal must be dismissed.

Appeal dismissed.

Tyson, Simpson and Anderson, J.J., concurring.
