    Error to Cuyahoga Appeals.
    Judgment affirmed.
    960. PROOF — 480. .Evidence.
    No degree of discredit which does not amount to affirmative proof, will afford foundation upon which to base inference that fact exists.
   ROBINSON, J.

.Evidence which generally and categorically denies the existence of a fact may be so discredited or may so discredit itself as to destroy its probative value; but no degree of discredit which does not of itself amount to,affirmative proof of such fact, will afford a foundation upon which to base an inference that the fact exists.
