Opinion
The defendant in this case conceded its liability, and its counsel seeks a new trial only on the ground that the damages fixed by the jury were excessive. We have carefully examined the appellant’s brief and the printed record, and conclude that we should not set aside the verdict, as it does not appear from the evidence to have been the result of sympathy or prejudice.
Present: Clement, Ch. J., and Van Wyok, J.
Judgment and order denying new trial affirmed, with costs.
