## Opinion text

*600 Mr. Justice DAVIS:
I concur in the judgment in this case on the ground that Brown waived his rights when he appealed to the confiscation proceedings, and by petition prayed the court to have the money realized from those proceedings paid over to him; which petition was granted by the court.
Mr. Justice FIELD dissented from both the judgment and 'the opinion.
