1Opinion of the Court
MANTON, Circuit Judge.
On the 21st of April, 1916, while the steamship Van der Duyn was at sea, the respondent, a coal passer, received a fracture of the ulna of his right arm. His right arm was caught between a bucket of ashes and the upper edge of an opening in the side of the ventilator. While the bucket was being hoisted up to the level of a doorway, through which it was to be put back out on the deck of the vessel, respondent’s arm became caught and injured. The cause of the injury was due to the failure, on the part of some one operating a winch, to use due care and diligence.
