Chabot v. W. H. McElwain Co.

Opinion of the Court

Young, J.

The evidence warrants a finding that the defendants knew, and that the plaintiff neither knew nor was in fault for not knowing of the danger of which she complains, incident to cleaning the machine, that it was not an ordinary danger of the employment, and that they failed to notify her of it. Consequently it can be found that their fault was the cause of her injury.

Exception sustained.

All concurred.
