Error to Gratiot; Searle, J. Case by Mary C. Whitford against the Township of Washington for personal injuries. Judgment for plaintiff. Defendant brings error.

1Opinion of the CourtOsteandee, J.

Testimony for the plaintiff tended to prove that while she was riding in a sleigh the foot of one of the horses went through a bridge in a highway in defendant township, the horse fell, and she, in consequence, fell or was thrown out of the sleigh, sustaining injury. In the trial of the action which she brought against the township, and in which she recovered, numerous exceptions were taken by defendant, many of which, with objections to the charge given, are urged here as ground for reversal of the judgment. Plaintiff’s injury was received February 27, 1913. ■
