1Opinion of the Court
Per Oubiam.
The form of the second issue is defective. The record shows that his Honor instructed the jury to consider the issue as if it read, “Did the plaintiff contribute by his own negligence to his injury?” which is the usual and approved form. We think the error was fully cured.
We have examined the other assignments of error, all of which relate to the charge of the court, and find them to be without substantial merit.
The case was fairly put to the jury in accord with the well-settled decisions of this Court.
No error.
