FOSTER, Respondent, v. CITY OF NEW YORK, Appellant.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.
April 1, 1915.)
Action by William Foster against the City of New York.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Judgment and order reversed, with costs, and complaint dismissed, on the ground that the notice of intention to commence the action was defective as to the statement of the time when the injuries were received, and that the form of denial contained in the answer did not exempt the plaintiff from the statutory obligation of proving the service of a proper notice.
