1. Death — Evidence.

In an action for tlie alleged death of a passenger resulting from the sinking of a ferryboat in a collision, evidence reviewed, and held sufficient to sustain a finding that deceased was a passenger on the boat that sunk, and lost his life in the collision.

2. Collision — Febkyb oats — Mutual Fault.

Where two ferryboats approaching each other attempted to cross courses in a dense fog, when neither could see the other in time to avoid a collision, they were both at fault — the one for attempting the maneuver ; and the other in assenting to it and putting her wheel hard astarboard, causing ber to swing one point nearer to tbe other boat, though she immediately stopped and reversed her engines.

3. Same — Limitation of Liability.

Where, after collision, the corporation owning both boats filed a petition to limit its liability with reference to the boat lost only, and did not offer to surrender the colliding boat, an interlocutory decree that the owner of the boat lost was entitled to limit its liability to the appraised value of such boat with its freight pending was no bar to libelant’s subsequent action against the owner for damages for the death of a passenger in such collision, in which it was held that both boats were at fault, though libelant had appeared and presented a claim for such damages in the limitation proceeding.

[Ed. Note.- — Limitation of vessel' owner’s liability, see note to The Longfellow, 45 O. O. A. 387.]

4. Same — Judgments—Satisfaction.

Where libelant appeared in a proceeding by the owner of certain ferryboats to limit liability as to one of them for a collision, and filed a claim for death of a passenger, the owner of the boats, on satisfying the decree in such proceeding, would be entitled to have the amount paid libelant thereunder deducted from the amount of damages awarded her in a subsequent suit for damages on the same cause of action.

5. Same — Damages.

Where deceased, at the time of his death in a collision at sea, was between 52 and 53 years of age, and had been living with his family, consisting of himself and seven children, damages to the extent of $5,000 were recoverable therefor.
