Mower v. Beard

Mower v. Beard
Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court · Decided December 2, 1912 · Rugo
213 Mass. 198; 99 N.E. 971; 1912 Mass. LEXIS 702

Mower v. Beard

Opinion of the Court

Rugo, C. J.

Assuming (but without so deciding) in favor of the defendant that his appeal was seasonably'taken and properly entered here, no error is shown. The plea in abatement raised an issue of fact. The action of the Superior Court in overruling it presents no question of law. An appeal in an action at law brings before this court only errors of law apparent on the record. Electric Welding Co. v. Prince, 200 Mass. 386, 392.

Appeal dismissed with double costs.
