It appearing from the record that the husband-petitioner, LeRoy C. Joseph, alleges and claims that real property No. 22 Gamle Gade, Crownprince Quarter, St. Thomas, is owned by him in his separate right, and, the Court sitting in probate having no jurisdiction to determine title to real property, the Commissioner finds that the interest and title of the husband-petitioner, LeRoy C.
