Head Matter:
Cora D. Tyler vs. Estate of Herbert E. Patten.
Hancock County.
Decided December 4, 1919.
Hale & Hamlin, for plaintiff. Gray & Sawyer, for defendant.

Opinion:
This case involves a clear question of fact. It was peculiarly a question for a jury. They saw the parties and heard the evidence and rendered an entirely reasonable verdict in amount. While we might not disturb a verdict if it was the other way, we yet feel that the decision of the case falls within the function of a jury, as a constitutional tribunal, solely authorized by law to pass upon questions of fact. Motion overruled.
