Syllabus
<p>Cross-Examination op Witness.—A witness on cross-examination can only be interrogated in regard to such matters as he testified about on his examination in chief, if objection is made on that ground.</p> <p>Damages.—If plaintiff in his complaint claims more damages than he is entitled to, this will form no ground for reversing the judgment. If, on the trial, plaintiff offers testimony to prove damages he is not entitled to, and defendant objects to its introduction, and there is a ruling against him, the question can be reviewed on appeal.</p>
