Mockett, J.

1. The petitioners are the defendants in O.S. Nos. 294, 311 and 312 of 1940 in the Court of the District Munsiff of Gudiwada; the plaintiff-respondent is the landholder.

Nos. 294, 311 and 312 of 1940 to review his judgment and order in these suits. He refused to do so stating quite correctly that there was no error apparent on the face of the record.
