## Opinion text

McFARLAND, J.
—I concur in the judgment and in the opinion of Mr. Justice Henshaw. It is to he said, however, that this is a case of marked negligence on the part of respondents, and that a street commissioner or road overseer could be held to the exercise of only a reasonable degree of care, and would not he Hable for accidents caused by slight imperfections in a highway.
