The trial was had by the court without a jury, and judgment rendered for plaintiffs.

It may be said that the judgment was rendered on June 9, 1931; the appeal was taken, and security for costs given and approved on May 11, 1932; and the question of jurisdiction to entertain the appeal is presented.
