Orders sustaining demurrers affirmed. The declaration clearly does not state with substantial certainty the substantive facts necessary to constitute a cause of action against either defendant, as required by G.L. (Ter. Ed.) c. 231, § 7, Second. On this ground the demurrers were sustained rightly. See Davis v. H.S. M.W. Snyder, Inc. 252 Mass. 29, 34-35; Pollock v. New England Telephone Telegraph Co. 289 Mass. 255, 258. Other grounds of demurrer need not be considered.
