AVERY, (P.J., W.S.)
(concurring).
I concur in this opinion for the reason that according to the proof adduced in this record there is evidence that would warrant the Court trying the suit for damages against Knox-Tenn Equipment Company by Jenkins, to submit the issue of whether or not the damage was the result of an “accident” as defined in the reported opinions of our Appellate Courts, and the American Employers Insurance Company can or could defend its assured with reservations so that it would not be liable under its insurance contract in event the defect in the floor was due to the negligence of the contractor Jenkins or that of his employees, or that if negligent, such negligence was of such contributory character as to constitute a part of the proximate cause of the buckling floor which resulted in the damage sought to be recovered.
