Campbell, J., delivered the opinion of the court.
The court should have instructed the jury to find a verdict for nominal damages only. There was no actual damage shown, and there was not a circumstance in evidence on which to found a claim for exemplary damages. In this state of case the court should not have permitted exemplary damages.
Reversed and remanded.
