DORR ANDERSON, Appellant, v. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS of Lee County et al., Appellees.

INJUNCTION: Bequest for paving roads — acceptance by county not enjoined. In an action by a taxpayer to obtain an injunction restraining a county from accepting a bequest to be used for paving roads, the injunction was refused where a will and two codicils provided for the bequest, as when all papers were construed together a valid gift to the county was found to have been created which the county had the authority to accept.

BLISS, J.

This was appealed separately, but submitted with the case of P.A. Blackford, Executor of the Last Will and Testament of Alexander Coleman, deceased, Appellee v. Dorr Anderson et al., Defendants-Appellants, and Lee County et al., Defendants-Appellees, 226 Iowa 1138, 286 N.W. 735. As stated in the opinion in that case, the decision therein rules and is determinative of the decision in this case.

The judgment and decree appealed from herein is therefore affirmed in all of its provisions. — Affirmed.

HAMILTON, and SAGER, STIGER, OLIVER, MILLER, and HALE, JJ., concur.

MITCHELL, C.J., concurs in result.
