Opinion of the Court

Hammond, J.

At the time of the accident the automobile was not registered in the name of its owner. It was therefore unlawfully upon the highway, and the defendant owed to the plaintiff no other duty than that of abstaining from injuring hita by wantonness or recklessness. The case is fully covered by Dudley v. Northampton Street Railway, 202 Mass. 443, and Chase v. New York Central & Hudson River Railroad, 208 Mass. 137.

Judgment for the defendant.
