Claim of Siegfreid v. Goldberg

Apparently the boiler referred to is the ordinary heater used in houses for furnishing hot water, and has no other use. It was probably larger than that in use in a single house, as there were five apartments to which the water was to be furnished; nevertheless it is the same kind of a boiler. I do not think that the man who builds a fire in a water heater in a house is within group 22,* which is “ operation and repair of stationary engines and boilers * * *.” The janitor simply was building the fire; there was no engine and no operation of a boiler within the meaning of the law. I favor reversal.
