Spink v. N. Y., N. H. & H. R. R.

54 A. 47 | R.I. | 1902

The terms of the act making the defendant liable for damage caused by fire from its engines, embracing the burning of "houses, wood, hay, or any other substances whatever," are broad enough to cover all kinds of property so burned.

The demurrer to the declaration is overruled.
