CASE IN SUPREME COURT
FROM SANTA ROSA COUNTY
Especial to The Journal

TALLAHASSEE, March 1.-THE
following decision was handed down
In the supreme court:
In the case ~ Lindsey Lumber COM
pany a corporation, plaintiff in error,
VS.. i. w. Souls from Santa Rosa coun-
ty, defendant in error, the supreme
court had ordered that if remittitur
of $3.50 is entered the judgment of the
lower court will stand affirmed for
$3.50. Otherwise, the judgement will
stand reversed on the thirtieth day
after the mar date Is filed in the trial
court. The opinion is per curtain. At
torreys: w. w. Clark of Milton for
plaintiff in error; Lard and Bailey of
Panama City, for defendant in error
In this case the opinion of the court
is as follows: "In an action for per-
sonal injuries and damages to an au-
tomobile at a country crossing, there
was a verdict and judgment for 81 500
against the lumber company. Conced-
Ing that the injury was proximately
caused by negligence Of the defendants
as alleged, and that the plaintiff did
not contribute thereto. the personal
injuries were not serious and the re-
pairs to the automobile are shown to
have cost a little more than $500.
Manifestly the verdict is excessive
To this extent the verdict IS clearly
contrary to the evidence. If a re-
mittitur of $3.50 is entered, the judg-
nent will stand affirmed for $3.50.
Otherwise the Judgment will stand re-
versed on the thirtieth day after the
mandate is filed in the trial court"

FATHER HARDEN
AT ST. MECHAEL'S
breaches to Large Congregation on
"The Threshold of Eternity"
Last Night.

Taking as the subject Of his dis
course The Threshold of Eternity
Father Harden, the learned and elo-
quent Paulist missionary. held the
closest attention of an audience that
taxed the capacity of st. Michaers
church. Step by step, he described
that scene that comes but once in the
history of eve-y individual soul: that
scene that follows immediately after
death, the awful scene of the soul on
judgment before it's God. No human
soul can escape that judgment for:
ut is appointed unto man once to die
and after this the judgment"
One by one, we come into life. One
by one, we pass out of life. One by
one, we stand on the threshold of
eternity, and await the moment of
judgment. Every one is separately re-
deemed by Christ on His cross. Each
one has his personal individual graces
from Christ. Each one has his own
individual gifts of ind and SOU. Each
one in particular shall suffer the IN
finite scrutiny OF God, his Maker, of
Christ, his Redeemer. Each one shall
hear his own separate sentence. Well,
indeed. may each soul say unto itself:
What shall I do when God shall rise
to judge, and when He shall examine
me, what shall l answer Him."
Speaking of the thoroughness of
this Judgment before the throne of
God, the missionary reminded his
hearers that even idle words must be
accounted for. Every idle word that
men shall speak, they shall render an
account for it in the day of judgment"
We may be spiritual spendthrifts and
squander cur gifts, all unmindful of
our responsibility to our Maker; we
may even ridicule the lives of the vtr-
tuous, burt the day shall come when
the living God shall demand an ac-
count of our stewardship. One day, we
shall stand all alone before the all
seeing eye of our God, to render an
account OF our most secret thoughts.
The time to prepare for this Judgment
is the present. So live this present
life, that when we shah stand on the
threshold of eternity. we may be pre-
pared TO meet our God in judgment.
