] Ground (e) is more of a statement than a ground of appeal. It asserts that the trial court must be fair upon all the evidence placed
 before the assessors who are not chosen for their understanding but are expected to exercise practical common sense. This statement is true, but there has been no suggestion that the learned trial judge had not been fair, and the perusal of the Court Rec
ord shows that the trial was conducted fairly, and the directions to the assessors contained in the summing up were correct and fair.
