JOHN MURRAY, an Infant, by EVA MURRAY, His Guardian ad Litem, Respondent, v. FREDERICK BRAINARD, SR., Appellant. FRANKLYN TUNISON, an Infant, by FRANK TUNISON, His Guardian ad Litem, Respondent,

The above-entitled actions were tried together and this appeal is from the verdicts of the jury and the orders of the trial justice denying a new trial. The actions are founded in negligence and the jury has rendered two verdicts, one for John Murray, an infant, in the sum of $1,500, and a verdict for Franklyn Tunison, in the sum of $3,500. A question of fact as to the negligence of the driver of defendant-appellant's car was properly for the jury and the evidence sustains the findings of the jury in this respect. Appellant contends that the verdict in each case is excessive. We are not impressed with this argument. The injuries were of a serious nature and the verdicts in the amounts stated should not be disturbed. Judgments and orders appealed from should be affirmed. Judgments and orders affirmed, with one bill of costs. All concur.
