Say s
the question is entirely one of the linits within whieh the jury's assessment of damages may stand. Ta @ case of this description, the task is pesuliarly G8ffieults and the elements which may be taken into susount are in & omse ciromecribed. Sut we think that the anount whieh the jury has arrived at, whilst it is perbaps 4iffieult to explain exactly, is within the eoupetence of @ juny and is not, baving regard to the fects that ave beun discussed, #0 exeossive that the Court could interfere. Tt 4s on eaount whieh is reasonably open om the evidence, and for that reason we think the appeal should be disnissed. 'the appeal is dismissed with costs.
