   SUMNER, J.

Defendant has petitioned for a new trial on the ground that the damages are excessive.

The plaintiff was allowed to testify without objection that the furniture in question was worth $195. The value of the individual items was not brought out on cross-examination. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum of $110 and interest, making a total of $135.70. The Court is not satisfied that the amount is excessive.

Defendant’s petition for a new trial is denied.
