Opinion

1. Evidence that plaintiff had sold cross-ties to defendant, cut from the land on which the trespass was alleged to have been committed by defendant in excavating and erecting its road on plaintiff’s land, was properly rejected.

2. There being testimony enough to sustain the verdict, this court will not control the presiding judge in overruling the motion for a new trial on the ground that the verdict was against the weight of the evidence.
