Exceptions from Superior Court, Middlesex County; P. J. O'Connell, Judge.
Separate actions of tort by Antonietta Di Leo and by Nazzario Di Leo against the Eastern Massachusetts Street Railway Company, to recover for personal injuries to the first named plaintiff and to recover for medical services and expenses incurred by second named plaintiff in consequence of such injuries. Cases tried together. Verdict was directed for defendant, and plaintiffs except. Exceptions overruled.
J. W. Pickering, of Boston (J. Vecchioni, of Boston, for counsel), for plaintiffs.
A. F. Bickford, of Boston, for defendant.
[1] These were two actions of tort brought by the plaintiffs against the same defendant: One to recover for personal injuries received by the plaintiff in the first case while a passenger on one of the defendant's cars, and the other, by her husband to recover for medical services and nursing expense incurred by him in consequence of said injuries to his wife. The cases were tried together. At the close of the evidence the court, upon motion of the defendant, ordered a verdict for the defendant, and the cases come before this court on the plaintiffs' exceptions to that order.
