1Opinion of the Court
BICKLEY, Justice.
This is an action commenced by plaintiff (appellee) to recover possession of a mining claim. The case was tried to the court.
The court made findings of fact, in substance that plaintiff had performed all necessary acts in locating this mining claim. The defendant (appellant) attacks these findings as not being supported by substantial evidence.
In this sort of possessory action, it is the duty of the court to consider the strength of the possessory title of each of the adversary parties. Upton v. Santa Rita Min. Co., 14 N.M. 96, 89 P. 275.
