NEW YORK COMMON PLEAS
    GENERAL TERM,
    DECEMBER, 1892.
    Barreau v. Hutchinson.
    Motion for reargument of appeal denied June 30, 1892.
    
      II. A. Vieu, for plaintiff (appellant).
    
      T. F. Gibbons, for defendant (respondent).
   Per Curiam.

The vice of appellant’s contention is that it assumes the letter of September tenth, addressed by defendant’s wife to plaintiff to be an unequivocal and absolute repudiation of the contract of employment, whereas the justice below apparently construed it to have been no more' than a proposition that plaintiff consent to a modification of the terms of the contract theretofore made; and as in our opinion the letter is susceptible of the latter construction it necessarily follows that appellant has not sustained the burden of showing error for which the judgment appealed from must be reversed.

Motion denied, with ten dollars costs.
