Stockett v. Ryan

Stockett v. Ryan
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided May 28, 1896 · Dean, Fell, McCollum, Mitchell, Williams
176 Pa. 71; 34 A. 973; 1896 Pa. LEXIS 1044

Stockett v. Ryan

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

The findings of fact made by the learned judge sitting as a chancellor in this case fully justify the decree appealed from. These findings are not absolutely conclusive upon us, but until error in them is clearly shown, they should be allowed to stand. We have examined the evidence with a view to satisfy ourselves whether these findings can be fairly made from it, and we are not persuaded that any one of them should be overturned. The decree is affirmed. Costs to be paid by the appellant.
