Description
This is an action to recover for alleged damage to a carload of cherries shipped from Yakima, Washington, to Cincinnati, Ohio. After a trial without a jury, judgment was entered for the plaintiff in the sum of $3,250, which was the approximate difference between the plaintiffs cost price and his selling price. The appellate court affirmed, (44 Ill. App.2d 48) and we allowed the defendants petition for leave to appeal. The defendant argues that the plaintiff failed to prove that the cherries were delivered to the initial carrier in good condition, and that an improper measure of damages was applied. The plaintiff contends that the damages allowed were insufficient and requests that judgment be entered in his favor in the sum of $4871.65.
