Adams v. Swift
172 Mass. 521 | Mass. | 1899
The evidence justified a finding that the excursion was a joint undertaking, of which Caroline F. Swift, the mother of the young woman who was driving when the accident happened, was an equal promoter and manager, and not a mere guest; and thatfunder her control and direction her daughter, so inexperienced a whip that it might be negligence to allow her to drive upon such an occasion, was driving, and driving carelessly. Therefore the case was for the jury.
The evidence of admissions was for the jury, and the rulings were right.
Exceptions overruled.
