Opinion

Butler, J.

The motion must be denied. On fuller examination, I am entirely satisfied the plaintiff has not presented a case which entitles him to recover. The burden is on him to prove malice,,and also want of [705]*705probable canse. In my judgment, he has not produced 'any reliable evidence of either. I have looked carefully through the case, and the impression made at the trial has deepened into conviction. I need not repeat what I then suggested in explanation of my views.
