Frazier v. Wilkes.
43 S.E. 1004, 132 N.C. 437, 1903 N.C. LEXIS 311
Opinion
The facts in the case come clearly within the language of Justice Montgomery speaking for the court in Raiford v. Railroad, 130 N. C., 597: “No act or omission, though resulting in damage, can be deemed actionable negligence unless the one responsible could, by the exercise of ordinary care, under all the circumstances, have foreseen that it might result in damage to some- one.” This is one of those *438 misfortunes against wbicb no reasonable human foresight could have made provision.
Affirmed.
