1Opinion of the CourtBeck, J.
I. The petition charges that the assault and battery was committed by both of the defendants but the evidence shows that violence was used by Henry Kukkuck alone, and that the other defendant, his father, was present encouraging the son and instigating the assault. The answer of the son pleads, as justification, thati plaintiff in the son’s presence pronounced a statement, then made by the father, a lie. In separate answers the defendants denied all allegations of the petition. The alleged errors complained of by defendants will be considered in the order we find them discussed by counsel.
