    Veeranna owns a farm at a distance of half a furlong from the railway track. He stored in his land the stacks of dried up straw after the cultivation as is normal in farming . One day when the train was passing through the track, the driver was negligently operating the locomotive by allowing it to emit large quantities of spark. The high wind, normal in open fields, carried the sparks to the stacks stored by Verranna and the stacks caught fire thereby causing extensive damages. Veeranna filed a suit against the railway claiming damages. The railways while acknowledging liability alleged contributory negligence on the part of Veeranna.

    • Veeranna was not liable since his use of land was lawful

    •  Veeranna's farm being at a reasonable distance from the railway track, he cannot be held liable for the high winds

    • Veeranna should have anticipated the possibility and hence he is liable for contributory negligence

    • Veeranna should have anticipated the possibility and hence he is liable for contributory negligence
