PartiesIn re LAWRENCE et al.
CourtU.S. Court of Appeals — Second Circuit

Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York.

W. M. Marshall, for appellant.

Albert Reynaud, for appellee.

Before WALLACE, TOWNSEND, and COXE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

This case depends upon a question of fact, which has been decided adversely to the appellant by the referee, and by the district judge in review of the referee. This court should not disturb these findings, unless they are manifestly unsupported by the evidence. So far from this being so, we are of the opinion that the evidence abundantly supports them.

Order affirmed, with costs.
