Opinion

Per Curiam.

The plaintiff’s evidence was sufficient to carry the ease to the jury on the issues of the actionable negligence of defendant’s intestate and the plaintiff’s damages as a result thereof. The burden of proof on the contributory negligence issue was on the defendant. The jury found he did not carry that burden. The record fails to disclose any error of law in the trial.

No error.
