Appeal and ebkob, \u00a7 1414 \u2014when findings not disturbed. Where the trial court, in a trial without a jury, has seen and heard all of the witnesses, the findings of such court upon mere questions ji fact, when the testimony is conflicting, will not be disturbed on appeal unless such findings are clearly and manifestly against the veight of evidence.\n2. Master and servant, \u00a7 50 \u2014when evidence fails to show promise to give references before employment. Evidence in an action by a traveling salesman against a wholesale house for breach of a contract of employment, held to sustain a finding that the salesman did not make any representations to his employers that he would furnish references as to his being of good and steady habits as a prerequisite to his employment.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by E. J. Benjamin against D. D. D. Company for damages sustained by plaintiff as a result of the breach of a contract of employment entered into between plaintiff and defendant. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendant appeals.\nEnos W. Shaw and Ninian H. Welch, for plaintiff in error.\nVail & Vette, for defendant in error.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols.
