1Opinion of the CourtMontgomery, J.
—This action was brought in the Hamilton Circuit Court by appellee to recover damages for a personal injury sustained while in appellant’s employ. The venue was transferred to the Tipton Circuit Court, and, upon appeal from a judgment rendered therein, this court held the original complaint insufficient. McElwaine-Richards Co. v. Wall (1902), 159 Ind. 557. An amended complaint, consisting of two paragraphs, was subsequently filed, and demurrers to the same were overruled. The issues were closed by an answer in general denial, and a trial by jury resulted in a verdict and judgment for appellee.
