stance of the case seems to be that
about July 18th, 1904, four or five boys
or young men started from Newton to
Colfax with steam threshing outfit.
When about ten or twelve miles south
west of Newton and three or four
miles from Colfax. they attempted to
cross the bridge In question, where the
that was used but little, but shorter
route by mile or more than the more
common travelled road. AS they started
in to this by-road they met a man
with heavy load of coal. He Is said
to have warned them Of the bridge. but
said he crossed with his load; SO they
decided 1T could not be so dangerous
as he thought. They went on. the en-
CINE went upon the bridge and went
down, leaving the separator and other
wagons on the bank. One of the young
men. Clarence Campbell, was caught
under the wreck and held under three
feet OF water until the wreckage could
be removed. The plaintiff in this case,
Joe Slaughter, was injured In such
