P. V. BOONE v. J. A. NEWSOME and Wife.
(Filed 20 April, 1921.)
Trespass — Evidence—Verdict—Appeal and Error.
Where a verdict is rendered upon conflicting evidence and without legal error of the court, it is conclusive on appeal.
Appeal by plaintiff from Ray, J., at November Term, 1920, of Guilpoed.
Civil action for trespass which involved tbe true location of tbe dividing line between tbe premises of plaintiff and defendants who were adjoining landowners. Tbe locus in quo is a strip of land about 28 feet wide, to which both parties claimed title and possession.
*502Upon issues joined, there was a verdict and judgment in favor of defendants. Plaintiff appealed.
II. W. Gobi, Jr., and Fentress & Jerome for plaintiff.
S. B. Adams and B. G. Sirudwiclc for defendants.
Per Curiam.
Plaintiff’s exceptions and assignments of error relate only to the charge of the court upon general propositions of law, and after a careful investigation of the record we find no sufficient reason for disturbing the verdict and judgment.
Plaintiff alleged that he was the owner and in possession of a certain tract of land, including the locus in quo. It was not denied that plaintiff and defendants were abutting property owners, but it was the contention of defendants that plaintiff’s deed did not cover the land in controversy, and that their own possession of said premises -was rightful and lawful. Upon this disputed question of fact the jury’s verdict was adverse to the plaintiff.
The exceptions must be overruled.
No error.
