Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>Master and Servant — Injury to a Minor Who Procured Employment by Misrepresentation. The fact that a brakeman obtained his position by falsely stating that he was of full age when he was in fact but eighteen years old (a rule of the company forbidding the employment of minors in that capacity) does not relieve the company from its obligation to exercise the same care for his protection that is due to any other employee, or disentitle him to recover for an injury due to the want of such care and not occasioned by his minority or immaturity.
