¶1I concur in the result on the ground that, whether the platform was or was not a nuisance, the backing up of trucks on the sidewalk so as to prevent the public from using the sidewalk was a nuisance ; and the plaintiff, being obliged to pass over the platform to get around the trucks obstructing her passage, and being as a result injured, is entitled to recover.
