INTOXICATING LIQUORS, § 135 — when insurers of tavern owners not liable in garnishment. Where plaintiff, who was a private detective, contracted with defendants to watch their place of business, while at the same time carrying on the same service for several other businesses, but he had the special duty of preserving order in defendants' tavern, for which he was paid extra compensation, held that, since he was injured while accommodating the bartender by removing a patron from the premises, he was acting on behalf of defendants and, under policy of indemnity here, insurers are not liable in garnishment.
