thereby violated the spirit of the injunction (Tr.
94).
Thereafter, on November 21, 1916, Honorable
William H. Hunt, sitting in the place of Honorable
William QC. Van Fleet, heard the statements of the
respective parties on the motion and ordered plaintiff to cease operations under defendant’s surface
until Judge Van Fleet could hear and decide the
matter (Tr. 99-100). On December 22, 1916, Judge
Van Fleet, after conferring with Judge Hunt, as
stated in the Memorandum Opinion (Tr. 89), denied
the motion but granted the defendant, if it so desired, a cross-injunction restraining the plaintiff
pending the suit from further prosecuting mining
operations extralaterally, on the disputed vein, upon
defendant giving a bond in the sum of $30,000 to
indemnify plaintiff against any damages suffered
by plaintiff from such restraint (Tr. 90). Defendant has not seen fit to avail itself of this privilege
but has taken this appeal from the order denying the
motion.:

ARGUMENT.
THE QUESTION PRESENTED BY THIS
APPEAL.
Defendant appears to believe that the injunctive

was restrained. We are certain that no such result
will follow, because the dissolution of an injunction
is largely in the discretion of the trial court, and it.
