Helmbeck, former owner of the property, sued out an injunction against the carrying out of the •writ of possession, on the ground that the tax sale was a nullity. The court dissolved the injunction, and Helmbeck has appealed. The appeal is suspensive, and the amount •of the bond, as required by law in such eases, has been fixed by the judge.
