1Opinion of the CourtMyers, J.
Appellee brought this action against appellants to recover damages for negligently causing the death of John B. Gordon. The issues, joined by a general denial to the complaint, were submitted to a jury for trial, and a general verdict, with answers to 145 interrogatories, was returned in favor of appellee.
