      Joseph B. & Bryan Gumming and M. A. Candler, for plaintiff in error. Alonzo Fie.ld, contra.
   Little, J.

There being some conflict in the evidence as to whether the engineer on the locomotive, which struck and killed the cow, “exercised all ordinary and reasonable care and diligence” to'prevent striking the animal, and the jury having returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for the proved value of the cow, there was no error committed in overruling the certiorari.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.
