1. Is the plaintiff the owner and entitled to the possession of the two black mare mules, as alleged in the complaint? Answer: "Yes."

2. What is the value of said mules? Answer: "$450."

The matters submitted to the jury were largely questions of fact, and have been determined by the jury under a charge free from error.

We have examined the several assignments of error, and find them to be without merit.

No error.
