The principle involved in the tragic case of Byrne v. Boadle (1863) 2 H. and C., 722, where a barrel of flour rolled out of an open doorway on the upper floor of the defendant's warehouse, and fell upon the plaintiff, a passer-by, in the street below, thrilled the Torts' class last Friday morning at 8.44 a.m.
