¶1The evidence of Hargrave was not a contradiction of Cline, as to what he had previously said, in a conversation with Barbee, Hall, and- others. And for that reason, the evidence was not admissible. The plaintiff below is not injured by its exclusion, whatever may be said of the ground of objection made to it, upon which it was pronounced to be inadmissible. There is no error in the judgment, and therefore it will be affirmed.
¶2Judgment affirmed.
