Syllabus
<p>Negligence — Collision between wagon and sled — Boys coasting.</p> <p>The driver of a wagon cannot be charged with negligence in causing the death of a boy seven years old at a crossing, where it appears that the boy at the time of the accident was riding on a sled back of another boy who was guiding it; that the lads were coasting down a steep cross-street; that the boy who was guiding the sled was not able to deflect it, so that it struck the rear of the wagon; and that there was space back of the wagon sufficient for the sled to have passed if it had been deflected.</p>
