This is an appeal from a judgment of dismissal entered at the close of the plaintiffs’ case upon defendants’ motion for involuntary nonsuit, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence to justify a verdict for the plaintiffs.

The action was brought to recover for personal injuries suffered by Mrs. Gentry when she was thrown from her seat on the defendants’ bus, on which she was a paying passenger. The accident occurred at an intersection on Second avenue in Seattle, as the vehicle was proceeding from the Greyhound south depot to the depot at Eighth avenue and Stewart street.
