City Council of Charleston v. Hagermeyer

Opinion of the Court

We concur in the conclusion of the chancellor as to the evidence' of Clarke’s identity.

The object of an issue at law, is to satisfy the conscience of the' chancellor, and motions for them are necessarily addressed to hid discretion. This is a matter in which the court rarely interferes^ and never except in cases of great doubt.

Appeal dismissed.
