Plaintiff. an elderly man. on the morn

on one OF the defendants cars running
from Providence to Pawtucket. The
strike had then been on for some days
This car ran as usual until II reached

Pawtucket avenue, when IL was suddenly
assailed with a shower of stones thrown
from the side OF the way.
Plaintiff was frightened, and being
struck with a stone extended his hand

He was seen TO walk 20 the side OF the
car and 70 fall TO the ground. His leg
was broken and he was otherwise hurt.
The presiding justice said TO the jury:
"The defendant would not be liable for
an injury received by passengers through
the throwing OF stones by people outside.
unless the car was propelled into n place
OF known danger. and the proof OF this
case ON that point Is simply that an
other car had been stoned. IL does not
appear 10 the court that there is suf-
hcient notice to the defendant or sufhc-

| Of things had prevailed for a length OF
