Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

Lumpkin, J.

delivering the opinion.

[1.] So far from the verdict, in the opinion of this Court, being manifestly and palpably erroneous, so much so, as to strike the mind at first blush, we think it was amply sufficient to warrant the finding, and consequently reverse the judgment of the Circuit Court, granting a new trial on the ground that the verdict was contrary to the testimony.
