There was a verdict and judgment in favor of the defendant, and that judgment was affirmed by the Supreme Court of Oregon. A writ of error was sued out to this Court.
The questions of fact and law in this case are similar to those in the case of French-Glenn Livestock Co. v. Springer, just decided, and for the reasons expressed in the opinion in that case, the judgment of the Supreme Court of Oregon is
Affirmed.
