Per Curiam.
It is unnecessary to discuss or decide the question as to whether or not the defendant would be liable to the plaintiff if the allegations of the complaint bad been established. The Court is unanimously of the opinion that there is not sufficient evidence to be- submitted to the jury to establish the allegations of fact set out in the complaint, and that the motion to nonsuit was properly allowed.
Affirmed.
