## Opinion text

HAMLIN, Justice
(dissenting).
I do not believe that a court should lend its aid to one guilty of unlawful conduct. Reason dictates and justice demands that the fault of Ashy should bar recovery in the present suit, the same as in toft actions.
TATE, J., dissents and assigns written reasons.
DIXON, J., dissents.
