““ * * * unless the preponderance of the evidence appears to be against the chancellor’s findings we must affirm.’’ See: Lupton v. Lupton, 210 Ark. 140 , 194 S. W. 2d 686 ; Turnage v. Matkin, 227 Ark. 528 , 299 S. W. 2d 831 . "* * * the judgment of the chancellor on the question of the preponderance of the evidence will he considered as persuasive when the evidence is conflicting, and evenly poised, or nearly so.” City of Little Rock v. Newcomb, supra; Turnage v. Matkin, 227 Ark. 528 , 299 S. W. 2d 831 .”
