Duff v. Allegheny Valley Railroad
91 Pa. 458 | Pa. | 1879
The judgment of the Supreme Court was entered
This was an action by a parent to recover damages for the death of her son on account of the alleged negligence of the defendants. It is clear, from the evidence, that the boy was on the train from day to day, not as a passenger or employee of the company, but by the connivance of the conductor, in order to sell newspapers. It is not like a person allowed by the conductor to ride in a car as a passenger without paying fare. In that case
Judgment affirmed.
