1Opinion of the CourtPreston, J.
Plaintiff sued to recover $187.50 for his services in performing a surgical operation on defendant’s foot. Defendant admitted the performance by plaintiff of the services, but denied they were of the value alleged. Plaintiff and his assistant, Dr. Frew, testiñed that the value of the services performed and medicines furnished were of the value of $187.50. There was nothing in defendant’s evidence to contradict such evidence as to the reasonableness of the charges made by plaintiff. Thereupon the court directed a verdict for plaintiff for the full amount of his claim, with interest.
