(New York City Court, General Term,
Filed June 20, 1894.)

Headnote

Appeal—Yebdict.
A verdict is conclusive upon a question of fact, properly submitted, where there is ample evidence to sustain it.

Was plaintiff’s engagement for the run of the play only or was it for the season, which plaintiff says that defendants representatives stated to her to be for the term from January 30th to the following June 1st. That is a question of fact and was properly submitted by the trial justice to the jury. Their finding in plaintiff’s favor upon that question is conclusive and has ample evidence to sustain it. Finding no error we affirm the judgment with costs.

Newburger, J., concurs.
