By the Court.
This action was brought in the *478court of common pleas of Hamilton county to recover on a policy of insurance.
It was. claimed by the insurance company that it issued the one thousand dollar policy, containing a one hundred dollar deductible provision, and that the limit of recovery was $1,000.
The original policy was for loss by fire only. The amount of the premium paid was $5.50 for that insurance. Attached to the policy was a rider for accidental collision. There was an additional premium of $62 paid for this provision.
The rider contained the provision for full coverage by accidental collision.
The record discloses that the machine cost $6,000. The jury found that the damage to the machine by accidental collision amounted to $3,-308.75, and returned a verdict for that amount. Judgment was entered on this verdict.
The rider provided for loss other than by fire, and will be read into the policy. The fire loss under the policy was limited to $1,000. The rider providing for full coverage was insurance for the amount of damage suffered by accidental collision. The rider so provided, and the full premium for such insurance was paid. It became a contract. The parties were bound by their contract.
We do not find any prejudicial error in the record.

Judgment affirmed.
