Court | Missouri Supreme Court |
Appeal from Butler Circuit Court.--HON. R. P. OWEN, Judge.
REVERSED.
T. J. Portis and Smith & Krauthoff for appellant.
S. M. Chapman for respondent.
This suit originated before a justice of the peace in Butler county, and was for the recovery of double damages for stock killed by defendant's road, in August, 1877, and the trial in the circuit court to which it was appealed, occurred before the Revised Statutes of 1879 took effect. The statement filed was as follows:
The petition fails to allege that the hogs got on the track at a point where the company was by law required to fence; and under all the decisions of this court on that question is fatally defective. Judgment reversed.
