The three were in the buggy at the time, and the facts of one case are those 'of the other; that is, the two cases, 18,405 and 18,-080, handed down to-day.
We have affirmed the judgment in Mrs. Allen’s Case, ante, p. 403, 53 South. 666, in which the district judge allowed her $150.'
The case now -before us for decision was tried by a jury. Two hundred dollars were allowed as damages.
