Opinion

May, 1916.


Plaintiff's exception to the dismissal of the complaint is sustained and a new trial granted, costs to abide the event, upon the ground that upon the evidence it was a question of fact for the jury whether or not the weak condition of poles Nos. 1, 2 and 3, due to defendant's negligence in maintaining them, was a proximate cause of their fall. Jenks, P.J., Stapleton, Mills, Rich and Putnam, JJ., concurred.
