1887As is said in Fannon v. Robinson, 10 Iowa, 272 : ‘‘There may be cases where a simple instruction will sufficiently present the question to be determined by the jury, without reference to the pleadings or the issues tendered therein.” In the case at bar, the jury were plainly directed to the facts necessary to be shown to entitle the plaintiff to recover, and this was sufficient.
