RAILROAD APPEALS HOVT'S CASE
. M
Claim That Court Error in Award-
ing East Nor-walk Man 01,600
Damages.

The Consolidated railroad company
has taken an appeal in the case of
Leroy E. Hoyt vs. N. Y., N. H. d. H.
R. 1!. Company. on the ground that the
court erred in ruling that the defend-
ants neglected to sustain the burden
of proof as to contributory negligence.
There are several grounds embracing
this fact upon which the appeal is is-
ken, The court recently tried the
case in Bridgeport, and damages were
awarded to the amount of 31.600 to
the plaintiff. who was thrown from the
platform of a train by its starting sud.
denly and was run over near the ole.
valor and one leg was crushed.
