This being the first grant of a new.trial, the judgment'below will not be disturbed by this court; for, although the new trial was granted upon a special ground, it does not affirmatively appear that the law and the facts necessarily required the verdict which the jury rendered.

Judgment affirmed.
All the Justices concurring.
