Syllabus

<p>Negligence — Infant—Coasting on sled — Wagon—Evidence.</p> <p>Where a large sled holding seven boys coasts down a hill to a city street and either strikes a wagon between its front and back wheels, or is struck by the front wheels of the wagon, and one of the boys is injured, and there is nothing to show that the driver of the wagon saw or could have seen the sled in time to prevent the accident, the driver cannot be charged with negligence merely because he was driving at a high rate of speed.</p>
