The opinion

ADAMS, J.,

dissenting:

In my opinion, when the laundry permitted the driver to carry its name, the effect was to alter the relationship of the

*626

parties and then the existing law of torts governed the liability of the laundry. In other words, the rule adopted did not change the law of torts. Liability in tort must depend and arise out of the relationship of the parties. That relationship can be fixed by law, express agreement or conduct of the parties.
