Description
QUA, Justice. The plaintiff rests her case upon alleged negligence of the defendant in the manner of installing an oil burner in the plaintiff's kitchen range. We think that she was entitled to go to the jury. There was evidence that the defendant had advertised to sell, deliver and install such burners for $24.95; that the plaintiff purchased of the defendant one of the advertised burners for $15 down and her promise to pay the balance of $9.95 to the man who would come to deliver and install the burner; that 'the manager told her he would send one of their own men to deliver and install it'; that the man who brought and installed the burner said he was 'from Sears, Roebuck'; that the plaintiff paid him the $9.95, and he gave her a receipt headed, 'Sears, Roebuck and Co. Boston, Mass.' and signed 'Leo Broderick'; and that the plaintiff never received any further bill from the defendant. This evidence would support findings that the defendant's undertaking included the installation of the burner and that the man who installed it and receipted for the balance of the purchase price was the servant of the defendant.
