Ferryboat duty and passenger risk ruled by New Jersey court

The United States Circuit Court in New Jersey ruled that a passenger leaving a ferryboat via a middle gangway assumes the risk if he ignores the path to the side gangway. The ruling held the company not liable for injuries from the chain barrier when passengers exit toward the middle gangway. Other items note Thanksgiving plans, a heavy storm at Asbury Park, hail damage near Princeton, Kingston, and Hopewell, plus local ads touting Dr King remedies.
