Supreme Court of Pennsylvania June 23, 1908, Appeal, No. 130 (Walsh v. Pennsylvania Railroad)

Opinion by

Mr. Justice Stewart,

Mrs. Mary Hayden, the original plaintiff in the case — deceased since the result in the lower court was reached — a widow of about middle age, was injured by a passing train while attempting to cross the tracks of the defendant company in an open wagon — she herself driving — at a public crossing in the city of Wilkes-Barre.
