Description
D. M. Reed owned and operated a cattle ranch on which Carnes W. Weaver had, so far as is here material, the usual oil and gas lease and a producing oil well. Reed claimed that five head of his cattle consumed a pipe lubricant from an open bucket left near the well and from pipe stacked at the well and died as a result thereof. A jury found that Weavers employee left a bucket containing pipe lubricant open; that it contained elements injurious to cattle; that Reeds cattle ate the lubricant in the bucket and that leaving the bucket open was negligence and a proximate cause of the death of Reeds cattle. Judgment was rendered on the verdict and Weaver has appealed.
