Description
WHITFIELD, J. -- In an action for damages the Anthony Farms Company obtained a verdict for $6,000.00 against the railroad company for the alleged burning of property caused by sparks from a passing locomotive. A motion for new trial was made upon grounds that the court erred in refusing to direct a verdict for the defendant, and in giving and in refusing specified instructions to the jury; and that the verdict is contrary to the evidence, to the charge of the court and to the law. The motion for new trial was granted, but the court did not indicate the ground upon which it was granted. A writ of error was under the statute, Section 1695 General Statutes, taken, to the order granting the new trial.
