COURT OF QI7REN'S BRNCH.—JUNI 28.
tiffOOMD COVET.
(After Term Nisi Prins Sittings at GurldhalL—Before Mr.
Justice Lush and a Special Jury.)
Li MARCHANT V. THE BOUTH-ZABIZIN RAILWAY COMPANY.
This was an action to recover compensation in damages
for personal injuries. The company did not deny their
11l the jury had. to do was to amass the
iability, and e
will, Q.C.r. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Murray
were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. O'Malley, QC., Kr.
Buller, and Hr. Thaler for the defendants.
The injuries were received in what was now well known
as the Staplehurst accident. The plaintiff had been for-
merly secretary to the Minister of Marine in the Victual-
ling Depaa Onent of the French Navy, but was now follow-
ing mercantile pursuita. He was now about 48 years of
age. It appeared that on the 6th June, 1866, the plaintiff
was on his Journey from Paris to London in the tidal ex-
press when the accident happmed. Three persons who
were in the same carriage with the plaintiff were killed ;
he, howe
ver, was teriously injured, and he lay for some
time in ecruciating agony, and after nine or ten hours he
was taken from the carriage and removed to Guy's Hospi-
tal, where he remained for ten days, the longest time
allowed to persons in the plaintiff's position. It was
found that the bones of the pelvis bad been split into Lave-
ral pieces ; there was also a great amount of inflamma-
tion ; be suffered the greatest agony, and it was an acci-
dent from which hardly one in a thousand could
have recovered. The plaintiff, having no friends in London,
at the end of the ten days wascarefully removed to Paris,
the company lending every assistance and paying every
attention to him. Dr. Humby accompanied him to Paris,
and when he arrived there Dr. Marks, an eminent surgeon,
was called in and attended Mr. Humby in consultation,
and he continued to attend him until the last few mouths,
when he died, and Dr. Lambert, who succeeded him, had
unfortunately become insane, and the opinion of the medi-
cal men in Paris, including Dr. Nellerton, who was called
in by the company, was that plaintiff would suffer from
irremediable d.eformity lameness, and he would be
subject to neuralgic Tains ; he could not walk without
crutches. Plaintiff had in consequence of this accident
been put to 1,5001. expenses. His services were worth
1,5001. a year, and jfor one year he had been
unable to earn anything. The plaintiff enjoyed a pension
of 2,500 f. from the French government. Pie retired from
that service in order to embark in commercial under-

takinet
f3ii Wm. Fergusson, Mr. Sydney Jones, and other emi-
nent surgeons were called, but there was the usual con-
flicting evidence as to the probability of the plaintiff
reoovering, and his being able to use his limb again.
The jury ultimately returned a verdict for the plaintiff
—damages, 3,250/.
