    "head_matter": "George Hosie, Appellant, v. La Salle, a corporation, Appellee.\nGen. No. 22,731.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Damages, \u00a7 115 \u2014when verdict in personal injury action not inadequate. In a personal injury action, a verdict of five hundred dollars damages for an injury to the head, held not against the manifest weight of the evidence and inadequate, there being evidence from which, if given credit by the jury, they might rightfully conclude certain heart troubles shown were constitutional and not attributable to such injuries. .\n2. Appeal and error, \u00a7 1407*\u2014when judgment for damages not disturbed as inadequate. A judgment will not be disturbed upon review for mere inadequacy of damages awarded unless it is apparent the verdict was the result of passion or prejudice in the jury or of error of law by the court.\nAppeal from the Superior Court of Cook county; the Hon. Marcus A. Kavanagh, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1916.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed March 26, 1917.\nRehearing denied April 9, 1917.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by George Hosie, plaintiff, against La Salle, a corporation, defendant, to recover damages for personal injuries. From a judgment for plaintiff for five hundred dollars, plaintiff appeals.\nB. F. Langworthy and Morse Ives, for appellant.\nLardon & Holt, for appellee; Robert N. Holt, of counsel.- ,\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, sum. topic and section number."
