Walton v. New York Central Sleeping Car Co.

139 Mass. 556 | Mass. | 1885

W. Allen, J.

The rulings and instructions of the court were correct. There was no evidence that Maxwell was employed by the defendant to take care of his own clothing and personal effects. The act complained of was not within the scope of his employment; and it is wholly immaterial that he was, at the moment, riding in a car of the defendant in which he was employed by it for other purposes.

Judgment on the verdict.
