Edgerton v. Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided September 28, 1927 · PER CURIAM.
139 S.E. 439; 194 N.C. 791; 1927 N.C. LEXIS 220 (South Eastern Reporter)

Edgerton v. Atlantic Coast Line Railroad

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The court below charged the jury clearly and accurately the law of actionable negligence applicable to the facts in the case.

From a careful reading of the record we can find no prejudicial or reversible error.

The action is similar and tried in accordance to the law as set forth in Farming Co. v. R. R., 189 N. C., 63. The same principle is set forth in C. & O. R. R. Co. v. Thompson Mfg. Co., 270 U. S., 416, 70 L. Ed., 659.

No error.
