J. J). 2). O. Griddings and John Sayles, for the defendant in error.

Opinion:
Roberts, J.
There is evidence on both sides, sufficient to authorize the jury to find a verdict either way. It is a case of conflict in the evidence, to be determined by the jury. There is no deficiency of testimony to support the verdict. If credited by the jury, notwithstanding the effort to disprove it by adverse evidence, it was amply sufficient to sustain their verdict. Under such circumstances, the verdict will not be disturbed.
Judgment affirmed.
