Head Matter:
Edward F. Juska, Appellant, v. Hotel Garage Annex, Inc., Respondent.
Supreme Court, Appellate Term, First Department,
January 13, 1943.
Jacob S. Spiro for appellant.
Irving Koondel for respondent.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Proof of failure to return part and proof of damage to another part of the bailment delivered to defendant under contract established a prima facie case. As defendant did not show due care and that the failure to return and the damage occurred through a cause beyond its control, the complaint should not have been dismissed.
Judgment reversed and new trial ordered, with thirty dollars costs to appellant to abide the event.
All concur. Present — Hammer, Miller and McLaughlin, JJ.
