Majority

p. 979
Wesley Wait, Plaintiff, v. Postal Telegraph-Cable Company and Central Hudson Gas and Electric Company, Defendants.

Plaintiff’s exception to the dismissal of the complaint is sustained and a new trial granted, costs to abide the event, upon the ground that upon the evidence it was a question of fact for the jury whether or not the Aveak condition of poles Hos. 1, 2 and 3, due to defendant’s negligence in maintaining them, was a proximate cause of their fall. Jenks, P. J., Stapleton, Mills, Rich and Putnam, JJ., concurred.
