PARDEE, Circuit Judge.

We are satisfied from the evidence in this case that Pearce, the stevedore, unloaded the D. N. Luckenbach at the instance of the master on the credit of the vessel, and that for such services the owners of the D. N. Luckenbach are liable. See Dennett v. The Main, 51 Fed. 954, 2 C. C.

The decree appealed from is affirmed.
