which turns on the obligations OF an
employer to properly care for an en-
ploye injured, once such employer has
through his other servants undertaken
TO so do.
James Bresnahan was in the latter

engaged in one of the mills of the Ions
dale company and owing, IL is alleged,
to a defect i'm the machinery at which
he was working one of his hands was
caught and his fingers badly lacerated
and bruised. He lost considerable blood
and endured great pam and agony.
The plaintiff claims that IL was the
custom OF the corporation TO have those
injured in its employ taken 10 their
homes or to hospitals and the agents OF
the company in thds instance, though
the weather was inclement, sent Bres-
nahan home. a distance of a mile or

proper treatment by the servants of
the Lonsdale company IL is asserted
blood poisoning and erysipelas set in
and that as the result of the blood poi
soning Bresnahan died in February

1t is claimed that the servants Of the
Lonsdale company acted in accordance
with instructions from the company oi
| general nature To take care of mer
| injured while at work and as not ever
| ordinary care was used either i'm hav.
| ing the wounds on Bresnahan's hand
