White. The defendant, The-United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company, is surety on. the official bond of the sheriff. The ease was tried to a jury,, and resulted in a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for three-thousand five hundred dollars. From the judgment entered, thereon and from an order refusing a new trial this appeal is brought.

Dissenting Opinion
I dissent. I think there was sufficient competent testimony in the record as to the value of the property to sustain the verdict.
