Opinion

Campbell, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

The recovery of five hundred dollars is not an undue punishment of the appellant for the wanton wrong done the appellee by carrying him nearly three-quarters of a mile beyond the point where he had a right to be stopped, i. e., the usual stopping-place for passengers.

Affirmed.
