¶1 Curia, per

Evans, J.

¶2This was one of that class of cases which a jury are more competent to decide than this Court. The evidence was contradictory, and the question was, whom the jury should believe. They have decided, and I do not perceive any such palpable error, as should induce this Court to interfere. The motion is refused.

Butler, Earle and Richardson, JJ., concurred.
