The claim was personal to the deceased plaintiff, and the suit abated when substitution of the legal representative was not pursued. As an appeal is only a continuation of the suit, nothing survived for appellate adjudication once abatement occurred. The impugned ruling also remained a partial determination because other issues were still pending for trial.
