N.E. Bragg, for plaintiff.

Braley & Swift, for defendant.

OPINION

PER CURIAM.

The question of law which the plaintiff now attempts to raise was open to her at the trial. As she did not then raise it, she cannot avail herself of it upon a motion for a new trial. No appeal lies from the order of the superior court overruling the motion for a new trial. Whittaker v. West Boylston, 97 Mass. 273, and cases cited. Appeal dismissed.
