The court found both defendants negligent: the 1st defendant breached a non-delegable duty by employing a woefully unsafe system without training, supervision or communication; the 2nd defendant undertaking the unloading operation was negligent for operating without signalmen or safe systems. The plaintiff was not contributorily negligent. Damages and losses were assessed on that basis and prior payments deducted to reach the judgment sum.
