This action was instituted originally by Jane Fitzpatrick in her own right, against herself as administratrix of the estate of her husband, John Fitzpatrick, deceased, and his heirs at law, two daughters by a former marriage, and their husbands.

*565 To say the least, this effort to contend on one side for individual rights, and upon the other for those of a trustee, by the same person, inconsistent and opposed to each other as they are, is irregular, and not to be upheld.

The action is to quiet the title of the plaintiff to a certain piece of land which she claimed as her own separate property, and which, on the other side, was claimed to be community property.

The court below made findings which sustained the contention of the plaintiff. Before the judgment was entered, Jane Fitzpatrick died, and the present plaintiff, as her successor in interest, was substituted as plaintiff.

The next thing done, upon motion, was an order substituting this same Norton, as defendant, in the place of the two daughters of John Fitzpatrick and their husbands, he, Norton, as it appears from a bill of exceptions filed herein, having bought out the heirs of John Fitzpatrick in this land, and taken their conveyances. Thus it would seem that their interest became his, and he had no cause of action against them upon which he could demand judgment. Properly they were dropped from the case, and had no further concern with it so far as affected Norton.

But it also appears in this bill of exceptions that one B. Percy Wright, the attorney for one of the heirs at law, claimed to have a transfer of some rents and profits accruing from the land in controversy from Kate Kelly, one of the defendants. It also appears that whatever claim Wright had was entirely unknown to Norton when he took a conveyance to the land from the heirs at law, and he was, therefore, an innocent purchaser for value.

The evidence is very meager as to whether Wright had any claim at all, but even if he had as to the rents and profits, it is not perceived how he could become a proper party to this action.

The judgment which was afterwards rendered in the *566 case is not against any of the appellants here; it is against Kate Kelly Hiland, substituted administratrix for Jane Fitzpatrick, the former administratrix of John Fitzpatrick, and the estate of John Fitzpatrick, and those claiming under Kate Kelly Hiland in her representative capacity, and “ through the said estate.”

The appeal from the judgment is taken by K. Percy Wright (who, as we have seen, is not a proper party to the cause), and by the heirs at law and their husbands, none of whom are aggrieved or affected by the judgment. The other appeal is from an order denying a new trial, and is taken by the heirs at law and their husbands above mentioned; they have no interest in the controversy, and R Percy Wright has no right to appeal through them. The only party against whom the judgment is given and made, the administratrix of the estate of John Fitzpatrick, prosecutes no appeal. It follows that these appeals have no place here, and should be dismissed.

Temple, C., and Belcher, C., concurred.

For the reasons given in the foregoing opinion, the appeals are dismissed.
