COURT REPORTER
Decision in the Strange Case of
aMONTEZUMA TAKES
A HAND'

Continued from Page Eight
And
Johnny Westerman lost not only
his hand, but all right to recover
any damages from the Fair Asso-
citation.
The case was so decided in the
lower court and was affirmed in the
Supreme Court of Michigan after a
long drawnout battle of many
months.
And while it is true that, with
the march of time, our old patriotic
custom of celebrating independence
Day is getting safer and saner,
there is still an annual crop of dis
asters such as this one to maj that
glorious event.
Both courts were firm in their
stand. The boy was unlimited at
the field where the celebration had
been held the night before. He was
a trespasser. And while there was a
night-watchman on duty, Johnny
climbed a high wire fence, and came
in unobserved in the wee hours of
the morning, in fact, before sun up.
In closing the case, the court
said: "The defendant had no reason
to expect that unattended children
of such tender age as to be immune
from charges Of negligence would
be likely to surreptitiously invade
the place at such an hour of the
day. The judgment of the lower
court is affirmed"
This is taken from a true case.
