Morris, J.
1. Suit by appellee against appellant for damages for personal injuries. Appellant’s demurrer to the complaint was overruled. Verdict and judgment for appellee for $800. The complaint avers that appellee was employed by a cement company operating a quarry near Mitchell on the line of appellant’s railroad; that a contract existed between appellant and the cement company for carrying the employes of the latter to and from their work at the quarry; that between Mitchell and the quarry there was a regular stopping point for appellant’s trains known as Coyles Crossing, where workmen returning from the quarry on appellant’s trains were discharged therefrom when they so desired; that appellee, a passenger on a train running from the quarry to Mitchell, *616desired to alight at Coyles Crossing, and, on the approach thereto, went on the platform of the coach in which he was riding, and thereupon the speed of the train was decreased as in preparation for a full stop; that on such slackening of speed, plaintiff stepped on the second step- of the coach preparatory to alighting from the car when it came to a stand; that at the time numerous other passengers were in like situation; that instead of bringing the train to a stop, as was appellant’s custom and. duty, it suddenly and with a violent jerk, negligently increased the speed thereof and thereby threw appellee to the ground, causing serious bodily injury to him.
2. In appellant’s memorandum, appended to its demurrer, the complaint is assailed because, as alleged, it fails to sufficiently charge negligence as the proximate cause of injury, and because it shows contributory negligence of appellee. We are of the opinion that the complaint is sufficient as against the objections urged. Appellant further contends that the complaint is insufficient to repel its demurrer because it shows that the contract between appellant and the cement company was in writing but fails to exhibit it. Inasmuch as there is no reference to this point in appellant’s memorandum to its demurrer, the same was waived. Acts 1911 p. 415, §344 Burns 1914.
3. It is contended that the court erred in its action in relation to the answering of interrogatories submitted to the jury. Appellant has failed to set out in its brief any portion of the record disclosing the action of the trial court in reference to the error urged. It is suggested in appellee’s brief that such action is disclosed by a special bill of exceptions, but neither the bill nor the substance thereof is set out in appellant’s brief, and consequently no question is presented here for review. Clause 5, Rule 22 of this court.
*6174. *616Instructions Nos. 6, 7 and 8, requested by appellant, were drawn on the theory that appellee was guilty of con-*617tributary negligence per se. Error is predicated on the court’s refusal to give each of them. Under the evidence disclosed by the record we are of the opinion that the refusal constituted no error.
5. Complaint is made of instruction No. 13 given, which is as follows: “The law exacts of a carrier of passengers for hire the highest degree of care and diligence for the safety of its passengers consistent with its mode of conveyance and the practical operation of its ears and road, and such carrier is responsible for the slightest neglect resulting in an injury to a passenger on its car, if such passenger at the time is in the exercise of ordinary care for his own safety and is without fault.” In a previous instruction the court had properly defined appellee’s duty in regard to the exercise of ordinary care. We are of the opinion that no reversible error was committed in the giving of the instruction. Indianapolis St. R. Co. v. Hockett (1903), 159 Ind. 677" court="Ind." date_filed="1903-01-27" href="https://app.midpage.ai/document/indianapolis-street-railway-co-v-hockett-7054488?utm_source=webapp" opinion_id="7054488">159 Ind. 677, 66 N. E. 39. Error is predicated on the court’s action in relation to other instructions given and refused. Without setting them out, it is sufficient to say that we find no reversible error in such action.
6. It is contended that error appears in the admission of certain evidence of witness Weitbnecht. If any objection was made by appellant to the admission of the evidence, it is not disclosed by appellant’s brief, and such omission waives its right to a review by this court of the trial court’s ruling. Clause 5, Rule 22 Supreme Court. There is some evidence to support the verdict, and the errors assigned do not warrant a new trial. Judgment affirmed.
