    Abstract of the Decision.
    Damages, § 191
      
      —when determination of question for jury. In an action to recover damages for a sprained ankle, where there was no evidence that plaintiff did not in fact receive his contract wages for the time he was laid up after the accident, or that his failure to work during that time testified to was due to the accident, or that he expended any money for medical services, medicine or anything else in and about being healed, held that the amount of damages plaintiff was entitled to receive was a matter of estimate, not of definite proof, and was peculiarly within the province of the jury to determine.
