Switzerland Marine Insurance v. Flamborough

Opinion of the Court

BROWN, District Judge.

The condition of the vessel, 27 years old, is proved by Mr. Congdon’s examination to have been so worn in her plates and unserviceable that Í find the inspection theretofore made could not bo such as “due diligence” under the “Harter Act” requires. 27 Stat. 4-id.

I also find the owners chargeable in this respect with any negligence of their agents appointed to inspect.

Decree for libelants, with costs.
