1Opinion of the Court
PALMORE, Judge.
This is a condemnation proceeding in which a jury awarded the appellee a total of $13,500 as damages on account of the taking of a 7.9-acre strip of land through her farm for highway purposes. The principal grounds relied on for reversal are that the damages were excessive and that they included an improper item of $5,000 for the building of an underpass connecting the two portions of the farm divided by the new road. Since we have concluded that the latter point is well taken it is unnecessary to consider the question of whether the remainder of the damages was excessive.
