1Opinion of the Court
Counsel contended in this Court that there was error in the opinion delivered at the September Term, 1889, in giving too strict a construction to the statute (Code, sec. 2326), which provides that,"when any cattle or other live stock shall be killed by the engines or cars running on any railroad, it shall be prima facie evidence of negligence on the part of the company in any action for damages (749) against said company: Provided, that no person shall be allowed the benefit of this section unless he shall bring this action within six months after his cause of action shall have accrued."
