This is an action for unlawful detainer, filed by Fisher Brothers Company, a corporation, plaintiff (respondent here), against Bert Gipson, defendant (appellant here), before Pres Hearn, a justice of the peace in Castor Township, in Stoddard County, on January 18, 1943, for possession of the following real estate, towit: "All that part of Sections 9, 16, 20, and 21, in Township 24 north, Range 12 east, and all that part of of Sections 11, 12, 13, 14, 22, and 23 in Township 24 north, Range 11 east, which was rented and occupied by defendant during the year 1942."
The jury, in the Circuit Court, upon appeal thereto by plaintiff, found plaintiff was entitled to the possession of the lands described, and fixed plaintiff's damages for withholding such possession at the sum of $1,666 2/3 per month, or $20,000 per year, beginning February 15, 1943.
From such judgment and without giving an appeal bond for more than the costs, defendant has appealed.
All of the issues in this case were settled by this court in case No. 6458, Fisher v. Lape, 176 S.W.2d 871, not yet published [in State Report], in which the writer has fully concurred. It is therefore unnecessary to go over the same ground again.
For the reasons given in Leo A. Fisher v. Fritz Lape, No. 6458, above referred to, the judgment in this case must be and is affirmed.
