Railroads must fence tracks in cattle land
Helena January 21 A Montana supreme court opinion by Associate Justice Lanner holds railroads must fence tracks where cattle stray, protecting train crews. The ruling affirms a lower court verdict in the case of J C Alexander administrator of John P Hall against Great Northern Railway, after Hall a conductor on a Great Northern work train in Flathead county in 1911 was killed in a derailment caused by a cow. The court says fencing may arise from common law duty to provide a reasonably safe workplace for employees.
