Opinion

Per Curiam:

The main contention in this case was whether the plaintiff was guilty of concurring negligence. While the answer to the second point submitted by the plaintiff may be subject to verbal criticism, yet when considered in connection with the whole charge, we think it did not mislead the jury. As a whole the charge is just and correct and the case was well presented to the jury.

Judgment affirmed.
