Opinion
The plaintiff, an infant, was injured by slipping upon and falling over a rug laid in the front hall of a tenement house in which plaintiff’s parents were tenants. We do not think that any actionable negligence can be predicated upon the mere failure to nail a rug to the floor.
Judgment reversed, and a new trial ordered, with costs to the appellant to abide the event.
