1. “The standard of review by an appellate court in an equity case has been discussed many times. It has been held that the findings of the chancellor will not be reversed unless it appears that he has clearly abused his discretion or committed an error of law. Yuhas v. Schmidt, 434 Pa. 447 , 258 A.2d 616 (1969). The chancellor’s findings have the full forcé of a jury verdict, and if supported by sufficient evidence, and if affirmed by the court en banc, will not be disturbed on appeal. Herwood v. Herwood, 461 Pa. 322 , 336 A.2d 306 (1975); Girard Trust Bank v. Sweeney, 426 Pa. 324 , 231 A.2d 407 (1967); Philadelphia Fresh Food v. M. Levin & Co., 239 Pa.Super. 287, 288 , 361 A.2d 886, 889 (1976).”
