Shepherd, J.,
(dissenting). I do not concur in the disposition made of this case. The evidence objected to is fully set forth in the case upon appeal, and its competency was thoroughly argued by counsel. If it is incompetent, it will be necessary for us to know whether the referee considered it in finding the facts, and the cause should be remanded. If it is competent, it is immaterial whether he acted upon it or not, and it would, it seems to me, be doing a vain thing to remand the cause in order to get his opinion upon thesubject. - Ithink we should now pass upon the competency of the testimony.
