PartiesPOLLY MORIORTY, Respondent, v. CAROLINE L. BARTLETT, Appellant.

OPINION TEXT STARTS HERE

Leslie W. Russell, for appellants, Virgil C. Bartlett and others, Ex'rs, etc.

Wm. P. Cantwell, for respondent, Polly Moriarty.

PER CURIAM.

It was conceded on the argument of this appeal that the principle determining the survivability of the cause of action was similar to that applicable to a cause of action given to the representatives of a person whose death was occasioned by the negligent or wrongful act of an individual or corporation provided for by section 1902, Code Civil Proc.We are also of that opinion, and having in the case of Hegerich v. Keddie, ante, 787, decided at this term, held that such a cause of action does not survive, we think this case is controlled by that decision.

The orders of the general and special terms should therefore be reversed, and the application denied, with costs in both courts.

(All concur; FINCH, J., on authority of Hegerich v. Keddie.)
