Syllabus
<p>INJURY TO EMPLOYÉ — ASSUMPTION OE RISK-PLEADING — EXCEPTIONS.</p> <p>1. The employé had knowledge of the danger incident to the crossing over a weak bridge. Others avoided the danger. I-Ie remained in the place of danger, although the danger was specially mentioned to him. Under a well-established rule, he must be held to have assumed the risk he met at the moment of the fatal accident.</p> <p>2. Plaintiff sued defendant as a partnership. It was a corporation, and not a partnership. This objection on the ground stated, urged by way of exception, is fatal to the action.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
