Opinion
(1) It is settled law in this State that the findings of fact by a referee, approved by the trial judge, are conclusive on appeal if supported by any competent evidence. And (2) the judge of the Superior Court in ,the exercise of revisory power may modify the report of the referee. These principles are too well settled in this State to require citation of authority.
