Before BIGGS, Chief Judge, and McLAUGHLIN and O'CONNELL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Careful consideration of the record, the briefs and the arguments of the parties in the instant appeal convinces us that the court below rendered a correct decision.79 F. Supp. 403. As to damages see our decision in Walshaw, Administratrix, v. Irwin, 3 Cir., 161 F.2d 184. As to damages for loss of consortium alleged by the husband plaintiff the evidence demonstrates this to have been too nebulous to warrant reversal. Accordingly the judgment of the court below will be affirmed.Page 776
