This suit was brought by the father of the young boy against the Railway Company to recover for loss of services, doctors’ bills and hospital expenses.

Demurrers of the defendant having been sustained, the plaintiff suffered a nonsuit and has appealed as authorized by statute. § 819, Title 7, Code 1940.
