Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York April 15, 1900 (Stoothoff v. Brooklyn Heights Railroad)

Hirschberg, J.:

The plaintiff proved the receipt of his injuries under circumstances which justified the jury’s conclusion that- the defendant was liable. The only question to be considered on the appeal relates to the amount of the verdict, and to the competency and propriety of the medical evidence on which it was based.

The plaintiff is a plumber and gasfitter, having a shop of his own.
