The questions in the case having become hypothetical, the appeal will, in accordance with a long line of decisions, be dismissed. Doherty et al. v. Citizens' Bank of Grove et al., No. 11,084, decided Sept. 7, 1920, but not yet officially reported; McCullough v. Gilcrease, 40 Okla. 741, 141 P. 5; Spaulding v. Yarbrough, 40 Okla. 731, 140 P. 782.
