The plaint. ff being ex.unined and crossexamined, it appeared that the damages sought to be recovered were excessive. The Warden stated that he would give the plaintiff L 3 and costs, but the opposite party was desirous that the Warden should visit the ground, which he did. On returning, verdict was given for L 3 and costs of Court.
