Opinion
After a careful examination of the testimony, a majority of the court are of opinion, as was the trial judge, that the injury of libelant did not result from any negligence on the part of the steamship Ingram, her officers or crew, but from the accidental slipping of his own foot, for which the vessel was in no wise responsible. The decree of the District Court dismissing the libel is accordingly affirmed.
Affirmed.
