The Chief Justice interposed that it would be well to settle the principle upon which they had to go. It was clearly Inid down that in order to over-rule the decisión of Justicus the Court must hold that there was no evidence to justify the Justices in coming to the conclusion they bad. It had struck his Lordship in reading through the papers that this was a case in which there was no conflict of evidence, because there was no evideeen given for the defendant, and therefore it would be necessary to show Londo that the finding was impossible on the complainant's evidence.
