The opinion

Per Curiam: :

The tenant had no such possession of the premises as to exempt the landlord from liability for damages caused by the pavement being out of repair. The duty of repairing the pavement was on the landlord, who was the owner of the premises. The charge of the court was quite as favorable for the plaintiff in error as he was entitled to demand.

Judgment affirmed.
