Opinion of the Court

Pierce, J.

The facts in these two cases are set out in the case of Regan v. Superb Theatre, Inc., ante, 259. It is clear that the *262jury properly could find that it was negligent to leave the staging unprotected and unguarded for ten or fifteen minutes in the middle of a crowded sidewalk. It is equally clear that the jury could find that the plaintiff was in the exercise of due care.

F. P. Garland, for the defendant. T. J. Ahern, for the plaintiffs.

Exceptions overruled.
