Per Curiam.

¶1The appeal here is from an interlocutory order for preliminary injunction against trespass to realty by cutting trees, granted under section 1469 of the Revised Statutes to one claiming to own “the turpentine in and on the pine trees” on the land in'question with the privilege of cutting, boxing and scraping the said trees. The section referred to gives the right to injunction to “any person 'claiming to own any timbered lands in this State.” *502This was held in the recent case of Doke v. Peek, 45 Fla. 248, 34 South. Rep. 896, not to apply to the owner of growing timber upon land, and, a fortiori, does not give a right of action to one owning only the turpentine in the trees. No irreparable injury or other ground of equitable intervention is claimed.

¶2The order granting the preliminary injunction is reversed.

Carter, P. J., and Maxwell and Cockrell, JJ., concur.Taylor C. J., and ShacicleRord and Hocker, JJ., concur in the opinion.
