Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

After having considered the record, briefs and oral argument we conclude that the learned trial judge properly applied the relevant law and that the conflicting evidence as to the operative facts was correctly submitted to the jury, whose verdict was consistent with a reasonable interpretation of the evidence as applied to the law properly charged.

BOYER, Acting C. J., and MILLS and BOOTH, JJ., concur.
