On Rehearing.
SUMMERS, Justice.
In our reconsideration of this case on rehearing, we again subscribe to the pronouncements of the majority opinion, except that we find the amount awarded there somewhat inadequate under the circumstances. An award of $85,000 to this plaintiff for the loss of maintenance and support would be more consonant with the facts and circumstances recited in our original opinion and all other matters revealed by the record.
Accordingly, the judgments of the District Court and of the Court of Appeal are amended by reducing the total amount awarded to plaintiff individually from $161,243.45 to $96,243.45; and, as thus amended, the judgments are affirmed. All costs to be paid by defendants.
HAMITER, J., concurs in part and dissents in part, he being of the opinion that the judgment originally rendered here shall be reinstated and made final.
HAWTHORNE, J., concurs in the decree.
*23SANDERS, J., concurs with written reasons.
McCALEB, J., dissents in part being of the opinion that our original allowance provides just compensation to the widow for maintenance and support.
