Head Matter:
James J. Scott, Appellant, v. Walter Gallagher, Respondent.

Opinion:
Judgment and order reversed upon the facts and new trial granted, costs to abide the event. The record plainly discloses a fracture of the femur and probably of the collar bone. The verdict of the jury was less than the loss of earnings and the hospital bill paid by plaintiff. No compensation at all was given for plaintiff's injuries. The verdict was -clearly inadequate and should be set aside. Lazansky, P. J., Rich, Young, Seeger and Scudder, JJ., concur.
