Court of Appeals of Georgia June 14, 1917, 8435 (Adams v. Klasing)

George, J.

1. This suit was for personal injuries occasioned by the breaking of a flight of steps leading to a house rented and occupied by the plaintiff as a tenant of the defendant. The charge of negligence was that the defendant failed to inspect and repair the steps, and that the steps as originally constructed were attached to the building by a defective piece of timber.
