Sowers v. Lowe
Sowers v. Lowe
5 Sadler 268; 9 A. 44; 20 Week. No. 76; 1887 Pa. LEXIS 616
Sowers v. Lowe
Opinion of the Court
The evidence of the plaintiff shows that she has no legal cause of action against the defendants. The natural flow of water, from a higher onto a lower lot, cannot as a general rule give a cause of action to one injured thereby. There is nothing proved in this case to take it out of the general rule. There was no error in directing a nonsuit on the unquestioned evidence of the plaintiff.
Judgment affirmed.
