Syllabus

<p>Negligence — Evidence — Hospital record■ — ■Omission to• read whole record.</p> <p>The omission to read the whole of the hospital record of the plaintiff in an accident case is not ground for a new trial, where it appears that the defendant’s counsel had access to the record, and could have known of the omission, and there is nothing to show that plaintiff’s counsel countenanced any concealment. The part omitted is not such after-discovered evidence as would justify a reversal because a new trial was not granted on account of it.</p>

Judges: Head, Henderson, Kephart, Orlady, Porter, Trexler, Williams
