## Opinion text

Jones, Judge,
concurring:
I concur in the result on the ground that plaintiff was at fault in not driving a rod or otherwise exploring to the full depth that it intended ultimately to drive the pile. It knew the water main was in that area and, in view of the obligations of the contract, should have exercised this precaution.
