Judgment modified, on the facts, by reducing the award of the counsel fee to the amount of $1,500. As so modified, judgment affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements. The counsel fees allowed were excessive to the extent indicated herein. Hopkins, J. P., Latham, Cohalan and Damiani, JJ., concur.
