At tbe close of plaintiff’s evidence and at tbe close of all tbe evidence, tbe defendants made motions for judgment as in case of nonsuit. Tbe court below overruled these motions, and in tbis we can see no error. Tbe plaintiff’s evidence fully sustained tbe allegations of tbe complaint. It is tbe well settled rule that upon a motion as of non-suit tbe evidence, whether offered by tbe plaintiff or elicited from tbe defendant’s witnesses, is to be considered in tbe light most favorable to plaintiff, and be is entitled to every reasonable intendment thereon and every reasonable inference to be drawn therefrom.
The plaintiff testified, in part: “I eased into tbis street going slow, and looked, that was to my right, and saw nobody and looked down here to my left and saw a man over here. ... I know tbis man was 35 or 40 yards down that street coming up on that side, and when I saw him coming so fast, instead of making my circle and going down I would have met him, and I decided I would go on up to tbe next block and go around that short block and come into town to keep from being in bis way, but I eased on across and when my car was entering up on there, going across, tbis man, if be ever made any turn at all I don’t know it. I kept looking out my window wondering if be ever would turn to bis right, and just as I was entering upon tbis sidewalk on farther side of Asb Street, tbis man came up and ran under the rear end of my car, striking tbe left corner, and I saw my car and beard tbe lick and a great crash, and my car went up ... I believe he was f.0 yards and perhaps more, coming '[lying. I saw that as I was entering the street.”
Fletcher McGlohon testified, in part: "Mr. Hobbs1 car was a little over half way the street on the left-hand side at the lime they struck. *241 The rear of his car had passed the center of the street before they struck. . . . He was beaded north crossing the street; Mr. Kirby’s car was going east; the front part of Mr. Kirby’s car struck Mr. Hobbs’ car. The left-hand back wheel of Mr. Hobbs’ car was struck. Mr. Kirby’s car was about the middle of Ash Street when he hit Mr. Hobbs, going in an easterly direction. After it was struck Mr. Hobbs’ car went over on the sidewalk and hit a telegraph pole and bounced back. It went up on the sidewalk and hit the pole. ... At the time his car was struck Mr. Hobbs was traveling about 15 miles per hour.”
Ardelia Parks testified, in part: “I saw Mr. Hobbs’ car coming. He was driving somewhere about 15 miles an hour, I reckon, very slow. He was coming down Leslie toward Ash Street. I saw the Kirby car coming. When I got to Ash Street, I ran across. I saw Mr. Kirby’s car coming; he was making J±0 to 50 or 60 miles an hour climbing that hill, and I ran across to keep from getting struck. I saw the Kirby car when it struck Mr. Hobbs, because I had just made my escape and turned around to see how quickly he passed. He struck the rear end of Mr. Hobbs’ ear. At the time he struck Mr. Hobbs’ car it had gone very near across the street intersection. Mr. Hobbs’ car climbed the telegraph pole when it was hit, it swung around. It was headed for that lady’s porch when it hit. Mr. Hobbs was lying collapsed in the street, blood just streaming. ... I ran because he was rurming reckless.”
The defendant contended that he was not to blame and was within the law of the road. “I saw that he dashed in front of me all of a sudden. . . . I am a salesman for the Southern Biscuit Company. I was going that morning on a business trip.”
The charge of the court below is not in the record, the presumption is that the court below charged every principle of law applicable to the facts. The question of negligence, contributory negligence and damage were facts for the jury to determine — they decided in favor of plaintiff. In law we find
No error.
