1Opinion of the CourtMonks, J.

Appellant brought this action against appellee to recover damages for libel. Appellee filed an answer in two paragraphs, the first paragraph being a general denial, and the second paragraph a partial answer as to all except compensatory damages. Appellant’s demurrer for want of facts to the second paragraph was overruled. A trial of said cause in the year 1902 resulted in a verdict, and, over a motion for a new trial, a judgment in favor of appellee. The jury found, in answer to a special interrogatory, that the “article complained of by plaintiff was false.”
