— The errors assigned are that there is not sufficient evidence to warrant the judgment, and that the damages are excessive. Each of us have separately read and considered the evidence, and separately reached the conclusion rvc cannot interfere, under the settled practice of this court, with the judgment below. It is impossible to say the court was actuated by either passion or prejudice. On the contrary we are of the opinion the evidence fully warrants the finding.

Affirmed.
