Appeal from district court, Bowie county; J. M. Talbot, Judge. Action by Helen Hyson and others against Wash Hill and others. Judgment for plaintiffs, and defendants appeal. Affirmed. F. M. Henry, for appellants. Vaughan & Vaughan and John J. King, for appellees. FLY, J. This is an action of trespass to try title, instituted by appellees against appellants; the case being similar to that of Hill v. Jackson (this day decided by this court) 51 S. W. 357. The points raised in this case being the same raised in that case, reference is made to that case for the reasons which induce this court to affirm the judgment. The judgment is affirmed. HILL et al. v. JACKSON.1 (Court of Civil Appeals of Texas. May 3, 1899.) Appeal from district court, Bowie county; J. M. Talbot, Judge. Action by Bud Jackson against Wash Hill and others. Judgment for plaintiff. Defendants appeal. Affirmed. F. M. Henry, for appellants. John J. King and Vaughan & Vaughan, for appellee. FLY, J. This is a companion case to that of Hill v. Jackson (this day decided by this court) 51 S. W. 357. The facts and points raised being the same as in that case, it becomes unnecessary to further discuss them, and, for the reasons given in the opinion in that case, the judgment in this case will be affirmed. HOUSTON & T. C. R. CO. v. SALLIS. (Court of Civil Appeals of Texas. Oct. 25, 1899.) Appeal from Washington county court; E. P. Curry, Judge. Action by William Sallis against the Houston & Texas Central Railroad Company. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendant appeals. Reversed.

(Court of Civil Appeals of Texas. Oct. 25, 1899.) Error from Bell county court; D. R. Pendleton, Judge. Action between J. T. Smithers and Jul. Servaes. From the judgment the former brings error. Affirmed. A. M. Monteith, for plaintiff in error. Butler & Riley, for defendant in error. FISHER, C. J. There is no bill of exceptions in the record to the admission of evidence. The assignments of error complain of the insufficiency of the evidence to support the findings of the trial court and the judgment based thereon. We have carefully read and considered the testimony, and have reached the conclusion, upon all the points of objection, that the evidence is sufficient to support the judgment of the court below. We find no error in the record, and the judgment is affirmed. Affirmed. TEXAS & P. RY. CO. v. ARMSTRONG. (Court of Civil Appeals of Texas. Oct. 25, 1899.) Appeal from district court, Lamar county; É. D. McClellan. Judge. Action by H. W. Armstrong against the Texas & Pacific Railway Company. From a judgment in favor of plaintiff, defendant appeals. Affirmed. T. J. Freeman, F. B. Dillard, and Head, Dillard & Muse, for appellant. Dudley & Moore, for appellee. KEY, J. This is a damage suit. The plaintiff recovered $405, and the defendant has appealed. There is testimony that will support a finding, and, in support of the verdict, we therefore find that the defendant was guilty of negligence, as charged in the plaintiff's petition; that he and his wife were not guilty of contributory negligence, as charged in the defendant's answer; and that, as a consequence of defendant's negligence, the plaintiff's wife was injured to the extent of $405. The principal question in the case is the right to recover compensation for the mental suffering of the plaintiff's wife, under the circumstances disclosed by her testimony. That question has been certified to the supreme court, and decided in appellee's favor. Railway Co. v. Armstrong, 51 S. W. 835. Ou the other questions presented in appellant's brief, we rule against it, and affirm the judg ment. Judgment affirmed. END OF CASES IN VOL. 53 INDEX. ABANDONMENT. Of homestead, see "Homestead," § 2.
