Vanderbilt University v. Henderson

This is an action by John E. Henderson against Vanderbilt University and certain individuals to recover for personal injuries suffered by him while a patient in Vanderbilt Hospital. These individuals were trustees and other officers of the university and the surgeon and the physician treating plaintiff. He took a non-suit as to some of these individuals, a verdict was directed for the rest of them, and there is now no question before us in regard to them. He obtained a verdict and judgment against Vanderbilt University for $2,000, and it has appealed in error and assigned errors.
