COUNSEL
McElrath & Eells, for Appellant.
Estee & Boalt, for Respondent.
OPINION The Court:
The sole point discussed on the argument in this case, relates to the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the verdict.
It is contended that there is no evidence that the plaintiff was ever engaged by the defendant to do the work to recover pay for which the action was brought.
In our judgment the case is one of substantial conflict of evidence on this point, and according to the long settled rule, the verdict cannot be disturbed.
Judgment and order affirmed.
