   PER CURIAM.

The complaint having been dismissed at the close of the testimony, the action of the court was in the nature of a non-suit, and therefore not upon the merits. The judgment must therefore be modified, by striking out the words “on the merits,” and, as so modified, affirmed, with costs to the resnondents.
