PIERSON, Respondent, v. DELAWARE & HUDSON CO., Appellant.
    (Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Third Department.
    January 6, 1904.)
    Action by John H. Pierson against the Delaware & Hudson Company.
   PER CURIAM.

Judgment and order reversed, on the ground that the damages are excessive, and a new trial granted, upon payment of costs of the former trial by defendant, unless the plaintiff stipulate to reduce verdict to $7,000, in which event the judgment and order, as so modified, are affirmed, without costs of this appeal to either party.

HOUGHTON, J., votes generally for reversal.
