Opinion of the Court
The plaintiff in error brought his action against the defendant in error, and upon demurrer to the declaration the court sustained the demurrer ; whereupon the plaintiff, Paterson, excepted and says this was error. The injury complained of by the plaintiff in error was caused by his own fault or negligence, and not by the fault or negligence of the company. So we think the court committed no error in sustaining the demurrer in this case. Judgment-affirmed.
