Moore & Dunn for plaintiff.

H. L. Gibbs, F. A. Daniel, Jr., A. D. Ward, and W. F. Ward for defendants.

Per Curiam.

There are thirty-five assignments of error relating to tbe evidence, and four to tbe charge of tbe court. We are of opinion that they are without substantial merit, and that no reversible error has been committed.

Tbe issues relate solely to tbe true location of tbe dividing line between tbe lands of plaintiff and defendant, and present almost exclusively a question of fact, which has been settled by the verdict.

No error.
