Appeal and error, \u00a7 1522*\u2014when improper return of verdict with interest computed harmless error. Where a jury returned a verdict in an action <?n a building contract and erroneously added the words \u201cwith interest,\u201d and were ordered to retire and bring in another verdict for the whole amount which they might find was due plaintiffs, and to exclude the words \u201cwith interest\u201d from the verdict, and the jury brought in a verdict which included the original sum and the computed interest, but plaintiffs remitted the interest, there was no reversible error.\n2.
