HAYDEN v. PLATT et al.
(Supreme Court, General Term, Second Department.
February 11, 1895.)

Headnote

Action by Robert J. Hayden against Thomas 0. Platt and another, receivers of the New York & New England Railroad Company.
Tracy, Boardman & Platt (James R. Soley, of counsel), for appellants. Wood & Morschauser, for respondent.

The elaborate opinion filed by the referee so completely covers the facts as to render further discussion unnecessary. We do not see that the plaintiff was guilty of contributory negligence, and the amount of damages is not excessive. Judgment affirmed.
