2 Hilt. 178

Counsel

Bogardus & Brown, for the appellant., A. Woodman, for the respondent.

Mendell v. French

Opinion of the Court

Brady, J.

A perusal of the testimony in this case shows it to be conflicting. In such cases the finding cannot be disturbed, *179unless the evidence against it so greatly preponderates as to warrant the inference of bias, corruption, or partiality, even although the court may be of opinion, as the evidence appears on paper, that they should have found differently. Mazetti v. The N.Y. & Harlem RR. Co., 3 E. D. Smith, 98.

Judgment affirmed.
