Syllabus

<p>Negligence — Landlord and tenant — Liability of landlord — Baseball park — Fall of grand stand.</p> <p>1. The landlord of a baseball park is not liable for damages for personal injuries resulting from the fall of the grand stand, where it appears that the stand was owned by the tenant in possession and had been erected by him before the landlord took title, that the tenancy was continued after the change of ownership, that before the original term had expired a new lease was made to the same tenant, and that the latter continued in exclusive possession and management, without the new owner ever having been at any time in actual possession, or ever having the right to possession.</p> <p>Appeals — Assignments of error — Evidence.</p> <p>2. Assignments of error to the admission of evidence will not be considered where the answers to questions and papers admitted are not set forth in the assignments.</p>
