$4,000 asked, for heart balm, aud 81

incurred by Miss Waddell while walt
ing for defendant to lead her TO the
altar. OF this sum $500 was given
by the jurors for the brides trousseau.
The motion TO set aside raises the
Interesting question whether q defend

be forced legally to pay $500 for n
tiousseau the plaintiff sweaTs cost
only $3.50; moreover, can the defend
ant be forced to pay for a troussead

The motion also attacks the verdict
OF $4,000 for mental anguish, etc, do
claring that there was 10 evidence
that Miss Waddell suffered anguish TO
that value.
When the Jurors brought In the yer.
