1Opinion of the CourtThompson, J.
The defendants own 245 acres of farm land one mile north of Redding in Shasta County, through which, for many years, the state highway extended. For the purpose of straightening the highway through defendants’ property the state condemned a strip of land near the old highway 235 feet in width and 750 feet in length, containing 8.46 acres of land. A jury awarded the defendants damages for the property taken in the sum of $2,500 and severance damages in the additional sum of $2,500. A judgment was rendered against plaintiff for the sum of $5,000. From that judgment the state has appealed.
