¶1This action, was brought to recover damages susr tained by the plaintiff, when lawfully upon the highway, by reason of the defective condition of the sidewalk upon which he was proceeding, resulting from the overlapped form, of two flagstones in his path. The evidence adduced in his behalf is found to properly sup: *815port the finding that this particular defect caused the injury, and that the plaintiff was himself chargeable with no negligence contributing to the result. Further, the defendant’s negligence in maintaining the sidewalk as noted was sufficiently apparent from the period of its existence in this defective form,—an interval of three months, according to some of the evidence. In support of the claim that this condition of the flagstones was not actually shown to have caused the injury, the defendant points to the evidence of the plaintiff that his foot struck “that stone,” without an express statement appearing that the overlapping flagstone was intended; but, in view of all the circumstances shown by the proof in the case, we must hold that there was ample room for an inference to be drawn by the jury that the defendant’s negligence, as pointed out, was the proximate cause of the accident. The award of damages is not questioned, and we can find no error in the rulings upon the trial.
¶2Judgment and order affirmed, with costs. All concur.
