"When removing a wooden measure from the counter with a chisel, a splinter struck him in tho eye, rendering it practically -useless. For tire defence it was stated that the measure should havo been unscrewed and not chiselled, that claimant was uot employed to do such work and that he should not have removed the measure without authority.
