On the morning of April 10, 1868, the plaintiff's intestate, a girl seventeen years of age, entered the cars of the defendant at Syracuse to go to East Syracuse, a station on the line of defendant's road, where she had resided for seventeen months prior to that time. The train was not one of the regular passenger trains upon the defendant's road.
