Dixon, which was an action for breach of contract, the language of the court was: "When the damages awarded by the jury appear to the judge to be excessive he may either grant a new trial absolutely, or give the plaintiff the option to remit the excess, or a portion thereof, and order the verdict to stand for the residue."
