damages alleged to have been sustained by

formed that the circumstances leading
thereto are as follows: The plaintiffs in
the suits started from Grantsville with the
driver on a two-wheeled mail cart. The
driver told them that the cart was not
strong enough to carry them, and that II
they insisted on going it would be at their
own risk. They insisted, nevertheless,
and the cart broke down. as anticipated by
the driver, within twenty miles of Bel
mont. When this happened he took the
mail in on horseback, and as they had
emf an order in by him to a friend to
meet them with a team as they walked
towards Belmont, it was not necessary for
him to go back and bring them in.
