Lida M. Barteau vs. Edward E. Rhoades et al.
    Cumberland County.
    Decided March 29, 1929.
    
      Hinckley, Hinckley & Shesong, for plaintiff. Emery & Waterhouse, for defendants.
   This was an action brought to recover damages which plaintiff claimed were due from the proprietor of a Merry-go-round at Old Orchard. Plaintiff was standing near the Merry-go-round when a child eight years old was thrown or fell or jumped from the machine, striking against her and injuring her. At the close of plaintiff’s case, a non-suit was ordered and very properly so. There is nothing in the evidence upon which a jury could reasonably predicate a finding of negligence on the part of defendant. Exceptions overruled.
