In 1899, the petitioners moved on notice for an execution to collect the amounts due them by said decree. The respondents answered and pleaded payment, and the statute of limitations, etc. On appeal to the Superior Oourt, his Honor was of opinion that the record and pleadings raised issues of fact to be tided by a jury, and so ordered. The petitioners contended that only questions of fact were raised, and that they should be decided by the Court, and appealed from the order directing a jury trial.\nThe answer of respondents presents important questions. We are, however, not required to consider them, for the reason that the issues presented have not been tided below'. These pleas present serious and important issues of fact. McDonald v. Dickson, 85 N. C., 250; Isler v. Murphy, 71 N. C., 436.\nThe appeal was clearly premature, and can not be entertained. Hailey v. Gray, 93 N. C., 195; University v. Bank, 92 N. C., 651.\nAppeal dismissed.'",
