Appellate Court of Illinois June 23, 1902 (Pittsburg, C., C. & St. L. Ry. Co. v. Hewitt)

Mr. Justice Adams

delivered the opinion of the court.

Counsel for appellants contend, but not very strenuously, that the use of the links and pins, as a means of coupling broken patent couplers, was one of the ordinary risks of appellee’s employment, which he assumed, and that there is no ground for the contention that he did not appreciate the danger of that kind of coupling.
