Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We have no doubt that the place of stranding is-where the government witnesses locate it. That being so, it seems very plain that the stranding was due to the b.arge’s failure to anchor in time and with sufficient chain. Judge Veeder has very fully and carefully discussed the testimony. We concur with his reasoning and conclusion.

The decree is affirmed, with costs, on his opinion.
