¶1The decree and order denying the motion for a new trial reversed, so far as concerns the San Gorgonio Pluming Company, a corporation. The findings and decree seem to be based upon the fact that the company is a corporation, and as such is indebted to- the plaintiffs, and its property is decreed to be sold. The corporation has never been made a party to the action, and has not had a day in court.
