The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Plaintiff was a passenger on one of defendant’s trains. While getting off at a station at which the train had stopped' to- let passengers on and off, he was thrown by a sudden- movement of the train and injured, so that his leg had- to be cut off. He recovered judgment against defendant for $1,000- damages.

1 One of the defendant’s requests to charge was: “A railway company is only required to stop- its trains long enough for passengers desiring to alight to do so, and it is, not charged with the duty of seeing that such passengers have actually alighted.” The Court charged the request as follows: “I can only charge you that in connection with the statute, which I have already read to you, that a railroad shall cause all its trains for passengers to entirely stop upon each arrival at a station advertised by said company as a station for receiving passengers upon said train, for a sufficient time to receive and let off passengers.”

The error assigned is that the modification led the jury to believe that it was defendant’s duty to see that all passengers had alighted before the train could be moved. We do not think the jury could have been so misled. The whole proposition was charged • in connection with the statute, which modified only the first sentence, which was faulty in that it did not include time for passengers to get *316 on as well as to get off, as the statute requires. The jury must have understood that the last part of the proposition was charged without modification.

2 The next assignment of error is in allowing plaintiff’s counsel to comment upon the verdict found by the jury in a previous trial. The record fails to show what the comments -were. They may have been entirely harmless. The burden is upon appellant to show that it was prejudiced by such comments. State v. Duncan, 86 S. C. 370.

Judgment affirmed.
