HAYNES, Respondent, v. POWER, Appellant.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Term.
February 23, 1900.)

Headnote

Action by Tilly Haynes against Andrew F. Power. Judgment for plaintiff, and defendant appeals. Judgment modified and affirmed.

The item of $5 for injury to an umbrella and pair of gloves was improperly allowed by the court below. Aside from the point that the plaintiff’s right to recover with respect to this property is not apparent, there was no competent evidence of value to support the award. In other respects we are not inclined to disturb the judgment. Judgment modified, by deducting the sum of $5 therefrom, and, as so modified, affirmed, without costs.
