Opinion of the Court

Text extracted by OCR from a scanned original; check the original for exact wording.

Per Curiam.

Plaintiff was injured in the same accident as was the plaintiff in Sherwood *534 v. Crescent Creamery Company, supra, page 263, 153 N. W. 525 . Hie only claim on this appeal is that the verdict of $2,500 is excessive. We have examined the testimony and conclude that the verdict, while liberal, is not so out of proportion to fair compensation for the conditions testified to by plaintiff and her witnesses that we ought to interfere.

Order affirmed.
