THE RIGHT TO RUN OVER CHrLDREx-In
recent case against the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company the Supreme Court OF Penn
sylvania has decided what might be called
the question of the right To run over children
In this case there were two children on the
track when train was approaching. One
ran off, but the other caught it's foot i'm the
track. When the fiagman saw this he gave
the engineer the signal to stop. but il was TOO
late, and the child was injured. Ought not
the train TO have been stopped before?
"The court held that the defendant was not
Obliged TO bring its cars 10 full stop because
children were seen on the track. The rule i'm
the case of an adult seen upon the track by
those in charge OF a train is that IL the engi-
neer sees the adult i'm time 10 stop his train,
but the train being in full view, and nothing
TO Indicate to him n want of consciousness of
it's approach, he would not be bound TO stop
his train Having the right To a clear track
he would be entitled To the presumption that
the trespasser would remove from IL i'm time
to avoid the danger; or IL he thought the per
son did not notice the approaching train, it
would be sufficient TO whistle TO attract his
attention, without stopping. This rule the
court applyS 10 the case of children. IL has
been frequently held, however. that the same
rule should not apply to children of tender
years treSpassing upon premises of "a railway
company, or i'm other dangerous places, az il
does 10 adults"
