## Opinion text

Order affirmed, with costs; no opinion.
Concur: Chief Judge DesmoNd and Judges Fuld, Burke, Scileppi and Keating. Judge VAN Voorhis concurs upon the following ground: The requirement outlined in the opinion of Matter of Marks v. Gray ( 251 N. Y. 90 ) that the business errand should have prompted the trip appears to have been overruled in Matter of Mahoney v. Stern & Co. (9 N Y 2d 931), which holds that it is sufficient if the journey on which the accident occurred was to serve both a business and a private object. Taking no part: Judge BergaN.
