Opinion

Per Curiam.

We are of the opinion that the jury has erred in its judgment in deciding the amount of damages to be awarded to the plaintiff. The damages are clearly excessive. We have therefore concluded to make a conditional order reversing the judgment, and granting a new trial, unless the plaintiff will consent to reduce the damages to the sum of $750, and affirming it for that amount if the plaintiff shall consent to such reduction.
