Syllabus

<p>Syllabus.</p> <p>1. Courts may restrain an excessive noise when it interferes with the comforts of life and impairs the reasonable enjoyment of a home.</p> <p>2. If, however, the judge of the first instance, in the exercise of legal discretion, declines to issue an unrestricted preliminary injunction, not being satisfied that there is sufficient ground to issue a sweeping order stopping the ringing of all bells for any purpose whatever and however moderately rung, the ap pellate court will not make a mandamus peremptory and will not set aside the action of the lower court.
