92 So.2d 638 (1957)

F.J. LEVERING, Jr.; Marjorie R. Levering, his wife; Anna P. Levering, a widow; William A. Wegmann and Leada A. Wegmann, his wife, Appellants, v. CITY OF TARPON SPRINGS, a Municipal Corporation, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Florida, Special Division A.

February 13, 1957.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Thompson & Cooper, Clearwater, for F.J. Levering, Jr., Marjorie R. Levering, his wife, Anna P. Levering, a widow.

Marshall & Rives, Clearwater, for William A. Wegmann and Leada A. Wegmann, appellants.

James M. Stevens, Tarpon Springs, for appellee.


THORNAL, Justice.

Appellants, who were defendants below, seek reversal of a final decree quieting the title to certain real estate in the appellee City of Tarpon Springs, which was plaintiff below.

Despite several interesting incidental questions, the one which settles the controversy is whether the record sustains the conclusion of the Chancellor that appellee-City had acquired title to the land in dispute by adverse possession without color of title.
