VERDICT FOR DEFENDANT IN SlO,OOO SUIT

Judge Banks in the superior court Tuesi
 day morning. The action wnich was re-
 cently tried before Judge Banks was to
 recover for services rendered by Miss
 Harding to MT. Peck as iousekeeper ard
 nurse and the jury gave q verdict for &l, s65 which was compensation for 65 weeks at the rate of $21 a week.
 In his decision Judge Banks finds that '.the verdict Is apparently based upon what the jur7 found to be the reasonable value of the plaintiffs services as a prac- teal nurse for the entire e5 weeks that she was in Mir Peck.s employ. The complaint does not allege that she rem dered any service other than as house keeper prior to December 1, 1918. and tht only evidence as to the reasonable value of such services is that they were of the value of S1 day. Upon the pleadings anl evidence. therefore, the jury could properly award her only $60 for hei services prior to December 1 instead et
 $1ss The verdict is set aside, unless the plaintiff within one week files q remit : tur of slos.
