1Opinion of the CourtEllison, J.

The main question presented in this case as shown by the instructions given and refused is as to the measure of damages. The question is fully settled against appellant in the cases of Pope v. Jenkins (30 Mo. 528); Chapman v. Kerr (80 Mo. 158); Mix v. Kepner (81 Mo. 93). Defendants evidently asked their instructions under the cases of Woodburn v. Meyer (39 Mo. 222), and Miller v.

Meyer and Miller v. Whitson.
