Cope, J. delivered the opinion of the Court

¶1—Field, C. J. concurring.

¶2This is an appeal from an order setting aside two judgments obtained by the plaintiffs by default. The order was made upon conflicting affidavits, and we cannot undertake to say that an error has been committed. The grounds set forth in the affidavit on behalf of the defendants are sufficient to sustain the action of the Court.

¶3Order affirmed.
