Jacob Block et al. v. Max Rehfeld.
    
      Practice.
    
    The evidence having been conflicting, this court declines to interfere with the verdict in the case presented.
    [Opinion filed January 16, 1891.]
    Appeal from the Superior Court of Cook County; the Hon. Elliott Anthony, Judge, presiding.
    Messrs. Blum & Blum, for appellants.
    Mr. B. M. Shaffner, for appellee.
   Waterman, J.

This action was begun before a justice of the peace; after trial and judgment there it was appealed to the Superior Court, and a trial de novo was heard; from the judgment of that court this appeal is prosecuted.

The case was one in which there was a dispute as to the facts", and it is because it is insisted that the jury came to a wrong conclusion as to the facts, that we are asked to reverse the judgment below.

We are by no means sure that appellee should have had a finding in his favor, but we see no sufficient reason for overturning the verdict of the jury, and the judgment of the court is therefore affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
