On controverted issues of fact, the jury has responded in favor of the plaintiff. The case seems to have been tried in substantial conformity to the apposite decisions on the subject and agreeably to the principles of law applicable. We have discovered no ruling or action on the part of the trial court which we apprehend should be held for reversible error. Hence, the verdict and judgment will be upheld.

No error.
