VS.. the Kennebec Steamboat company for
damages for injuries received at Bath No
vember, 1890, by clipping on gang plank.

u verdict of $3.50. The supreme courts
opinion, drawn by Judge Whitehouse,
overruling and setting the verdict aside,
says;
Such contract with a free passenger
that he shall ride at his own risk is not
prohibited by any rule of practice In the
state, but is in harmony with the princi-
pies of justice and common right and all
the cherished interests of the law. 1t Is
effectusl to exonerate the carrier from
liability for the negligence of his servants.
