Where a contractor who worked on a building abutting on a sidewalk leaves the sidewalk in a defective condition, and the borough takes no steps to have the sidewalk repaired, and two months thereafter a pedestrian is injured by reason of the defect, the borough will be liable for the injuries sustained.</p>
