Head Matter:
Charlotte A. Baldwin, Appellant v. The New York Central & H. R. R. R. Co., Respondent.
Decided October 25, 1888.
Appeal by plaintiff from a judgment dismissing her complaint in an action brought-to recover damages from alleged negligence of defendant’s servants.
Samuel H. Randall, for appellant. Henry H. Anderson, for respondent.
Before Sedgwick, Ch. J., and Ingraham, J.

Opinion:
The only evidence of negligence was a release which defendant received from plaintiff. A point was sought to be raised which was not taken below. The Court held (Per Curiam) " that the release was not an admission of liability; that on appeal the court could only examine the action of the court below upon matters actually presented on the trial; and affirmed the judgment."
