48 Ind. App. 124 | Ind. Ct. App. | 1911
Appellee, in a complaint of five paragraphs, sued appellant for damages to personal property and for the rental of an engine, boiler, derrick and drilling tools. The court made a special finding of facts, and stated its conclusions of law thereon. The finding was in favor of appellant on the paragraphs seeking to recover damages, and against it on the paragraphs for the use of the property. Judgment was rendered for appellee in the sum of $1,193.88, from which this appeal is taken.

Judgment affirmed.
