LOOMIS et al., Respondents, v. NEW YORK CENT. & H. R. R. CO., Appellant.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Fourth Department.
November 20, 1912.)

Headnote

Action by Leslie G. Loomis and another against the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Company.

Judgment and order reversed, and new trial granted, with costs to appellant to abide event. Held, that the words “Grand Street” in the bill of lading indicate-the address of the consignee, and the fact that there is a Grand Street- freight yard does 'not create an ambiguity sufficient to justify submitting to the jury the question of whether the words “Grand Street” were used to designate-such freight yard as a place of delivery.
