STONE, Circuit Judge,
concurs in the result for the following reasons: There is no claim of any promise by the foreman to remedy the defect which later caused the injury. It is an instance of an em-ployé remaining voluntarily at work after he knows the defect and knows the danger threatened to him by it. Eor an assurance to protect the workman he must have actually relied upon it, and must, under the circumstances, have been justified in that reliance. The testimony here clearly shows that he did not rely upon it, and is very persuasive that he would not have been justified in so doing.
