Travis & Travis and R. H. Parker for defendant.

Opinion:
Pee Cueiam.
Plaintiff appeals from a judgment in bis favor, alleging errors on tbe issues relating to damages. He thinks tbe amounts awarded are too small. A careful perusal of tbe record leaves us witb tbe impression that tbe case bas been tried substantially in agreement with' tbe law bearing on tbe subject and tbat no reversible or prejudicial error was committed on tbe trial.
No benefit would be derived from a discussion, seriatim,, of tbe several exceptions and assignments of error, as they present no new or novel point of law not heretofore settled by our decisions.
Tbe verdict and judgment will be upheld.
No error.
