8 A.2d 743 | N.H. | 1939
In Stone v. Johnson,
She now seeks to recover against the defendant personally in an action on the alleged contract. But it was stated in Stone v. Johnson, supra, 331, that she could not recover on the "alleged promise of the defendant to leave the lights burning" since "no action sounding in tort may be maintained for negligent failure to perform a contract." Such is understood to be the settled law of this jurisdiction. Barrett v. Company,
Judgment for the defendant. *312
