RHODE ISLAND CO.
MUST PAY AWARD
MADE MRS REED

This afternoon the supreme court over
ruled the defendants exceptions in the
case OF Flora n Reed vs.. Rhode Island
company and ordered judgment entered
on the verdict OF $3.50 obtained by tho
plaintin from jury In the superior court.
The accident on which the suit was
founded occurred Aug. 2. 1902
Plaintiff was a passenger on a car on
Weeden street, Pawtucket. which car the
conductor stopped so he could watch a
ball game Mrs. Reed was struck by a
patted ball and sustained very serious in
1uries.
Chief Justice Douglas wrote the opinion
Of the court In this case which when II
was first before the court attracted much
attention. At the trial before the jury It's
decision on special findings was asked.
One OF the chief OF these was Did the
plaintiff suffer any injury TO the skull
by reason OF the accident as alleged from
which she is now suffering7" The jury
said II was unable TO answer the special
findings.
While the supreme court believes the
Judge presiding at the trial in the lower
court erred in not requiring a verdict on
the special findings still as the questions
submitted could not affect the decision
of the jury upon the issue Of the defend
ants negligence though they might havc
been helpful In a small degree in deter
mining the amount OF damages. This de-
cision In regard to special findings Is held
TO apply only TO the present case.
As TO the objection that the verdict is
against the law all IL Is held untenable
as IL was a breach OF duty to stop the
car unnecessarily in a place of danger
land all the evidence in the case agrees
with our common knowledge that a posi-
ton behind the home plate OF baseball
field while a game is going on is posi-
tion OF great danger"
