Goodwin v. Dawson, 19 Ill. App. 637 (1886)

April 5, 1886 · Illinois Appellate Court · No. 1457

19 Ill. App. 637

No. 1457.

Goodwin v. Dawson.

This ivas a suit by appellee against the appellant to recover the value of wages and of boarding the work hands of the appellant, in which suit the former recovered the sum of §200. The error assigned against the judgment by the appellant is that the verdict is manifestly against the weight of the evidence. The court has examined the evidence with care, and after giving the appellee the benefit of the verdict of the jury which the law allows him it is unable to say that the verdict should be disturbed, or that it was manifestly against the weight of the evidence.
