Georgia, Carolina & Northern Railway Co. v. Brown
Supreme Court of Georgia
Action for damages. Before Judge Reagan. Elbert superior court. November 16, 1903.
1Opinion of the CourtCobb, J.
Brown purchased from the Railway Company a ticket for his wife. She presented herself for transportation, and the train failed to stop. It is claimed that her health was impaired -by exposure resulting from being left at the station. Brown brought an action against the company for the loss of his wife’s services, and it was held that he had a causé of action. See Brown v. Railway Co., 119 Ga. 88. The present suit is one by the wife for pain and suffering, growing out of the same transaction. She recovered a verdict, and the railway company assigns error upon a judgment overruling its motion…
