¶1Heydenfeldt, J., concurred.
¶2This was an action of ejectment in the Court below. The testimony was conflicting, and the jury found for the plaintiff. The instructions of the Court if incorrect in law are all in favor of the defendant, and he cannot complain of the error. The fifth instruction asked for by thé plaintiff, and given by the. Court, is somewhat ambiguous, but from our understanding of its meaning, we are not prepared to say that it was erroneous, and we do not see how it could have prejudiced the interests-of the defendant.
¶3The Court properly refused the tnotion for a new trial on the affidavit of Conway. It sets out facts entirely cumulative, and it w.ould be a dangerous practice to admit a witness whose deposition has already been used on the trial, to come in after a verdict and patch up his testimony, particularly where the verdict shows that the jury disbelieved his first statement. It is reasonable to believe that he disclosed at least all .he knew in his first deposition, and no greater latitude should be allowed in such a case, than there would be, had the witness-been actually present and examined on the trial.
¶4Judgment affirmed.
