Head Matter:
Minnie Kirkel, Respondent, v. The City of New York, Appellant.

Opinion:
Judgment reversed on the law and the facts and complaint dismissed, with costs. The notice of intention to commence the action served upon the corporation counsel, pursuant to chapter 572 of the Laws of 1886, failed to describe sufficiently and definitely the place of accident, and, therefore, does not comply with the statute.
