Bleckley and James Jackson, Judges. [Atlanta Constitution.] Augusta and Summerville Railroad Company vs. Renz. Complaint, from Richmond. WARNER, C. J. The plaintiff brought his action against the defendant to recover dam ages for injuries sustained by him as a passenger while being transported on its road, in consequence of the alleged careless, negligent and unskillful man agement of the defendant, its servants and agents, in operating its ears and coaches upon its said road, whereby he was thrown from its car and his arm broken, to his damage five thousand dollars. On the trial of the case, the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for the sum of §1,250. The defendant made a motion for anew trial, on the several grounds therein stated, and also made a motion in arrest of judg ment, both of which motions were over ruled, and the defendant excepted. It appears from the evidence in the re cord that there was a short steep curve in the defendant’s road, that in pass ing it the driver of the car put whip to the horses drawing it so as to enable them to sur mount the steep curve with the loaded car, which was done so suddenly as to throw the plaintiff off of the platform of the car where he was standing, breaking his arm. The car was full of passengers, some standing on the platform. The plaintiff was standing on the platform of the car when the couducter received his fare. The main question in the case, was whether the evidence showed that the plaintiff was injured by the carelessness and negligence of the de fendant in conducting its business as the earlier of passengers for hire on its road. The defendant made several requests of the court to charge the juty which were refused, and instoad thereof, charged the jury the law ap plicable to the facts of the case, as con tained in the 3033d and 3034th sections of the Code. We find no error, in view of the evidence contained iu the record, in the refusal of the court to charge as requested, or iu the charge as given. The sec tions of the Code before cited, em braced the correct principles of the law applicable to the facts in the case. The-e was no error in allowing the wit nesses to testify that since the injury to the plaintiff, the defendant had altered the curve in its road. The alteration was a fact which it was competent for the plaintiff to prove for the consider ation of the jury, subject to be ex plained by the defendant why the al teration was made. The standing on the platform of a street railroad car urawn by animal power, is not such an exposure to danger by a passenger, as the standing on the platform of a rail road car drawn by a locomotive ope rated by the power of steam, the more especially as in this |case, when there was no notice given not to stand there. There was no error in overruling the defendant’s motion in arrest of judg ment. There was a cause of action set forth in the plaintiff’s declaration, and though it may have been defectively set forth, it was cured by the verdict. In view of the dependence of the people for treval, in the cities where street rail roads have been established upon that mode of conveyance, in going to church, visiting the sick, etc., we are not pre pared to hold that the running of street railroads in cities and the vicinity thereof where the same have been es tablished, on Sunday, is not a work of necessity, as contemplated by the 4579 section of the Code, and that it is un lawful to run the same on that day. The jury having found in favor of the defendant as to the question of negli gence and carelessness on the part or the defendant and as to the fault of the plaintiff, and there being no material errors in the rulings of the court as to the law applicable to the facts of the ease, and there being sufficient evi dence in the record to sustain the exercise of the discretion of the court in overruling the motion for anew trial. Let the judgment of the court below be affirmed. Frank H. Miller, for plaintiff in error. Clay Foster, for defendant. Adams vs. Goodrich. Mechanic’s lien, from Richmond. WARNER, 0. J. This was a proceeding to foreclose a laborer’s lien under the provisions of the 1974th section of the Code. It ap pears from the affidavit of the plaintiff and the evidence in the record, that he was a laborer and mechanic, that he was employed by the defendant, who was a contractor and builder, to work for him at §2.25 per day, payable weekly, and that defendant was indebt ed to him §48.95 for manual labor per formed by him in sawing and dressing lumber, &c. The court charged the jury, “that the plaintiff, Adams, was a mechanic, and not such a laborer as was entitled to a lien upon the property of his employer which could be fore closed upon his own affidavit, under the law providing for the foreclosure of laborers’ lieus; to which charge ! le jury excepted. In our own judgment, the court erred in its charge to the jury on the statement of facts disclosed in the record. Although the plaintiff was a mechanic, he was a laborer within the true intent and meaning of the statute, and was entitled to a lien on the property of his employer. A contractor may be a mechanic, but if he does not perform manual labor, be la not en titled to a laborer's Hen on the prop erty of his employer. So a laborer may be a mechanic, and If he performs manual labor as such mechanic, he iu entitled to a laborer’s lien on the prop erty of his employer. A laboring me chanic who performs actual manual labor for his employer, is as much entitled to a laborer's lien on his property for the value of the labor performed by him, as any other class of laborers.* There is no dispute that Adams, the plaintiff, per formed the actual manual labor for his employer for which he claims a labor er’s lien under the statute. The fact that he was a mechanic at the time he performed that manual labor, does not make him any the less a laborer within the true Intent and meaning thereof. Laboring mechanics who perform manual labor for their employers, are embraced within the true intent and meaning of the statute as are any other class of laborers. Let the judgment of the court below hp rpvprfipfl John S. ’& Wm. T. Davidson, for plaintiff in error. Frank H, Miller, for defendant, In re Henry Lark. Habeas corpus. from Bichmend. BLECKLEY, J. 1. Habeas corpus and writ of error thereon, having been brought to free a party from imprisonment under a sen tence alleged to be illegal, the writ of error will not be dismissed, when reached for argument In the Supreme Court, on the ground that the period pf time covered by the sentence has then expired. There is no presump tion that an illegal imprisonment has terminated, or that it will terminate, in a voluntary discharge. 2. A sentence by the county judge of Richmond county, “to work in the chain gang on the streets of Augusta for twelve months,” is not one of which the convict (sentenced for simple lar ceny) can complain by petition for habeas corpus. The streets of a city are public works, withiu the meaning of section 4705 of the Code, and it is no deprivation oJJ any right of personal liberty, not to be constrained to labor on all of the public works, instead of a part only. The better and more regu lar practice, however, is to make the sentence as broad as the terms of the statute, and let it comprehend the public works generally. 3. By section 4,814 of the Code, as amended by the act of 1874, convicts may be hired out, as well to municipal corporations within the county as to other hirers ; and it is no concern of a convict what are the terms of the con tract, or whether the county is com pensated or not.
