Opinion

Per Curiam.

There was evidence of negligence and strong evidence of contributory negligence. However, the material conflict in the testi[789]*789mony created issues of fact. It was therefore necessary to submit the case to the jury. The verdict establishes facts imposing liability, and no error of law appears in the record. Hoggard v. R. R., 194 N. C., 256, 139 S. E., 372; Brown v. R. R., 195 N. C., 699, 140 S. E., 622.
