Adams, J.

— The defendant is what is called & quasi corporation. Such corporations are not ordinarily liable for negligence. Kincaid v. Hardin County, 53 Iowa, 430. The precise question before us was determined in Greene v. Harrison County, ante, 311. The case of Wilson v. Jefferson County, 13 Iowa, 181, and other cases respecting county bridges, it was held did not apply. *In our opinion the petition did not show a cause of action, and the demurrer was properly sustained,

Affirmed.
