Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided July 1, 1910 · Appeal · Brown, Elkin, Fell, Potter, Stewart
229 Pa. 15; 77 A. 1097; 1910 Pa. LEXIS 545
Sittig v. Pennsylvania Railroad

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

It is manifest from the testimony produced by the plaintiff that the collision in which her husband was killed was not caused by an unsafe schedule or by defective rules of the defendant company, but was due entirely to his disregard of a clearly defined and well understood duty.

The judgment is affirmed on the opinion of the learned trial judge.
