Tuscaloosa Belt Ry. Co. v. Fuller
Tuscaloosa Belt Ry. Co. v. Fuller
Opinion of the Court
— There was evidence from which the jury could infer that the horse was backing towards the track after Robert Fuller had gotten to his head, and that the engineer saw the situation, and that the horse was not under control. If the engineer discovered that plaintiff ivas in a perilous position, and could have stopped the train before the collision, and failed to do so,
Charge 2, requested by the defendant, was properly refused. The defendant’s servants could have been guilty of negligence in failing to stop the train after it passed Hill’s Station.
Charge 3, requested by the defendant, was in effect the general charge, and was properly refused.
No error is insisted upon in brief of appellant’s counsel as to the trial court’s failure to grant a new trial.
The judgment of the county court is affirmed.
