VERDICT OF S2,120
AGAINST THE {, v.
Jury Complicates Case by Find
ing Train Was Stopped to
Save a Man S Life.

Rutland, March 24.--After being out
q hours. a Rutland county court jury
this afternoon returned verdict
awarding Mrs. Bridget Stewart Of
WallinEford. aged 6S years, damages
Of $2,120.S4 against the Central Yer
mont Railway company. Mrs. Stewart
was injured at Montpelier Junction
March l, 1909, by reason OF the sudden
jolting of the car in which she was
riding. She said it was due to an en-
gine being shunted into the car but
the conductor testified that the train
stopped suddenly when the emergency
brakes were applied to prevent the
train from running over man who
fell in running for the train.
The jury. under a special verdict,
found that the train was stopped to
save a human life. This finding, with
the verdict for damages, makes COM
plication which the supreme court will
have to unravel.
The case OF George Doumouchel of
Pittsford against the Rutland railroad,
also an action for negligence, was
placed on trial to-day in county court.
on January 6, 1910, while the plain
tiff, with Thomas Carrigan and Ed
mund Ladabouche of Pittsford, were
driving to their work, their horse was
struck at a crossing in Pittsford by
the work train and thev We're all in
jured. Doumouchel has a stiff shoulder
and arm as a result of the accident.
The case is Of considerabl BILE Importance
to the railroad. as Carrigan and Lada-
bouche have also sued and on Dou-
mouchels case theirs hang. They
claim tho railroad was negligent in
that it was backing the train over the
crossing.
peculiar feature in the case is
that Edwin w. Lawrence, counsel for
the railroad. is ptted against his
father and brother George T. and
Robert y. Lawrence.
