Advertisement
This appeal presents an issue of fact in an admiralty case-- whether a seaman was, as he claims, improperly discharged by the master, or failed to return to the ship before sailing time, as the master insisted at the trial. The District Judge accepted the master's version, and we are unable to say that he was clearly erroneous.
Affirmed.
