The decree of the chancellor is affirmed, except as to the item of $488.88 allowed as interest on the escrow deposit of $10,000.00 and the chancellor is directed to reform the decree in accordance with this judgment and thereupon, the remainder of the decree shall stand affirmed. Costs of this appeal should be taxed against the appellee.
Affirmed in part and remanded.
Petition for rehearing denied.
