Before HAYNSWORTH, Chief Judge, BRYAN, Circuit Judge, and RUSSELL, District Judge.

PER CURIAM:

This appeal presents essentially factual questions. We accept the District Court's findings, for they are more than adequately supported, and, for the reasons stated by it,1 affirm its conclusion that Merritt-Chapman & Scott Corporation was not responsible for the loss of the barge.

Affirmed.
