Opinion

Per Curiam.

The only- assignment of error argued by counsel is upon the refusal of the trial judge to order a nonsuit at the close of the plaintiff’s case.

This could only have been done by entirely disregarding the' testimony submitted on the part of the plaintiff, on the ground that it was unworthy of belief. It was for the jury, not for-the trial, court, to pass upon the question of credibility.

The judgment should be affirmed.
