Syllabus

<p>NONSUIT-SUFFICIENCY OF EVIDENCE..</p> <p>In an action to recover the value of iron plates furnished defendants for use in a structure, a nonsuit was properly denied, when defendants’ contention, that the contract called for curved plates, ready for adjustment, while only flat ones were furnished, was not supported by the written contract, and there was a conflict in the expert testimony as to whether or not the detail plans and drawings called for bent plates.</p> <p>TRIAL-HARMLESS ERROR-RECALLING WITNESS.</p> <p>Recalling a witness after a trial had closed, for the purpose of permitting him to deny a statement attributed to him by another witness, would not be ground for reversal, in the absence of a showing that the adverse party was prejudiced thereby.</p>
