John I. & J. E. Hall, Fulwood & Murray, for plaintiff in error.

Opinion:
Hill, C. J.
The statutory presumption arising on proof that the cow of the plaintiff was killed by the running of the defendant's locomotive and train was not rebutted. Besides, there were circumstances supporting the presumption. The judgment is affirmed, and ten per cent, damages awarded against the plaintiff in error, for bringing the case to this court for delay only. Judgment affirmed, with damages.
