Syllabus

<p>Contracts — Performance—Evidence—Sufficiency. In an action to recover one thousand dollars due upon the performance of a contract to furnish certain amusement attractions for one month, a verdict for $525 is supported by the evidence, where it appears that plaintiff performed the contract in so far as not excused or prevented from performing by the defendant.</p> <p>Appeal — Review-—-Verdict. A verdict will not be set aside when supported by substantial evidence, even if contrary to the opinion of the court.</p> <p>Appeal — Error Favorable to Appellant — Trial—Verdict. A verdict for a less sum than was due for complete performance of a contract, is not a conclusive finding of nonperformance in its entirety; and is not error prejudicial to the defendant.</p>
