The plaintiff was injured by falling partly through a floor in leased premises. She sued the trustees of the deceased landlord's estate, and also the lessors of a freezer that had just been removed from the place where the accident occurred. The District Court directed a verdict for the defendants. We find no error affecting substantial rights.
