The judgments appealed from are assailed upon two grounds only: First, that the trial justice erroneously admitted evidence of a nervous condition of the infant plaintiff, not specified in the complaint or bill of particulars as among the injuries sustained by him in the accident complained of; and, second, that the recovery was in part for expenses alleged to have been incurred by the father, for which no foundation was laid by showing their fair and reasonable value. The first ground stated applies to both recoveries, but obviously the second applies only to the father’s recovery, since the consideration of expenses in the infant plaintiff's action was, by appropriate instructions to the jury, carefully eliminated.
No gravity attaches to this first ground of error assigned, owing to the conduct of the trial. Dr. Plillis, a witness called for the plaintiff, testified, under objection of defendant’s counsel, to the result of his examination of the boy, made at and some time after the accident; that the latter was suffering from some nervous disease. Clearly, this referred to the general condition of the health of the boy at the time, and the evidence so far was material in the first instance. There was a total failure of proof that this nervous disease resulted from, or was in any wise aggravated by, the injuries sus*341tained; and, indeed, such proof was inadmissible under the state of the pleadings, as affected by the bill of particulars. But evidence of the boy’s actual condition of health being admissible, the defendant’s objection to the consideration of such nervous disease as a basis of recovery should have been taken by a request for appropriate instructions to the jury. Since no such instructions were asked for, neither judgment appealed from is assailable for error upon the ground discussed.
The judgment in favor of Peter Fagan, the father, should be reversed. His recovery was unmistakably, in part, for expenses alleged to have been incurred for the board and lodging, as well as the nursing, of his son. Concededly, these expenses were not paid by him, nor was their fair and reasonable value even attempted to be shown. There was, therefore, no basis of any award for these items, and, despite the defendant’s counsel’s strenuous objection, the trial justice instructed the jury, that allowance therefor by them should result if the negligence of the defendant’s servant was found to have been the sole cause of the accident.
Judgment in favor of John Fagan affirmed, with costs. Judgment in favor of Peter Fagan reversed, with costs to the appellant to abide the event of new trial hereby ordered. All concur.
