We think there is evidence in the record tending to sustain the finding of the court below, and where that is the case, we cannot disturb the finding on a mere preponderance of evidence. Ghormley v.

Per Curiam. — It is therefore ordered, upon the foregoing opinion, that the judgment of the court below be, and the same is hereby, in all things, affirmed, at the costs of the appellant.
