DO CLING, J.
I concur in the judgment. I am not satisfied that the trial court’s action in excluding the default judgment was not error. Whether the default was acquiesced in by the Hoaglands was a question of fact and fact questions in a jury trial should be left to the jury. By accepting the evidence that the default was due solely to counsels’ inadvertence the trial court took this fact question from the jury. However I agree that on the record before us this was not prejudicial.
A petition for a rehearing was denied August 19, 1955, and appellants’ petition for a hearing by the Supreme Court was denied September 15, 1955.
