Professor Wagner, in making his study and arriving at his conclusion, used the photographs and the data. testified to by the investigating officers and delineated oq the maps received in evidence. While the plaintiffs a survey of the record indicated objected to the testimony of Professor Wagner, The court in subthere ia no sound basis for the exclusion of the testimony. how as to they should weigh and mitting the matter to the jury instructed the jury consider the testimony of an expert, and also that the jury were free to disregard the testimony of the expert if the reasons given for it were unsound.
