W. IRVING HAYES, Respondent, v. SCHUYLER C. THOMPSON, Appellant.

Headnote

Jury—verdict of—cannot be reviewed.
“The object of the appellant in bringing this appeal, would seem to be to procure the review of the action of the jury, notwithstanding the evidence is conflicting.

Appeal from a judgment in favor of the plaintiff, entered upon the verdict of a jury; and from an order denying a motion for a new trial.
Charles Mason, for the appellant.
H. W. Bentley and George W. Smith, for the respondent.
