The pleadings put in issue the ownership of the land and the existence of a public highway over and across the same, and the decision of the case necessarily involves a determination of such issues. A freehold is therefore involved and this court has no jurisdiction of this appeal. The case will be transferred to the Supreme Court and the clerk of this court is directed to transmit the transcript and all files in the case with the order of transfer to the clerk of the Supreme Court.\nTransferred to Supreme Court.",
