Opinion:
Hill, C. J.
The statutory presumption of negligence, arising on proof of killing by the running of the locomotive and cars of the railroad company (Civil Code (1910), § 2780), was not fully rebutted. No error of law is complained of, and the judgment refusing to grant a new trial must be Affirmed.
