Sisters of the Order of St. Joseph v. Farrell Heating and Plumbing Company.
Complaint; from city court of Washington — Judge Tutt presiding. September; 18, 1909.
F. H. Colley, 17. A. Slaton, for plaintiff in error.
J. M. Pitner, John A. Boykin, George M. DuBose, contra.

Opinion:
Russell, J.
Under the peculiar circumstances of this case, the assumption of liability by tlie defendant being the leading point at issue, the court erred in refusing to grant a new trial upon the ground of newly discovered evidence. The matters brought to the attention of the court, while in a sense impeaching, are also susceptible of being considered as substantive, proof, probably leading to a different result on another trial. Besides, the matter referred lo went to the fairness of the trial itself.
Judgment reversed.
