In their answer defendants admitted allegations of the complaint that they owned the subject property and that they rented it to plaintiff \u201cfor a charge of $30 a month\u201d; however, defendants denied that they agreed to supply the premises with water.\nAt the conclusion of plaintiff\u2019s evidence, defendants moved for a directed verdict in their favor. From judgment allowing the motion and dismissing the action, plaintiff appealed.\nCharles F. Lambeth, Jr., for plaintiff appellant.\nJ. Lee Wilson and Ned A. Beelcer for defendant appellees."
