St. Louis &c. R. Co., 54 Fed. 116; Owens v. Macon &c. R. Co., 119 Ga. 230, 46 S. E. 87. Nor a blind person, without attendance, who is unable to travel alone. Il linois Cent. R. Co. V. Allen, 28 Ky. L. 108, 89 S. W. 150; Zachery v. Mobile &c. R. Co., 75 Miss. 746, 23 So. 434, 41 L. R. A. 385, 65 Am. St. 617; Illinois Cent. R. Co. V. Smith, 85 Miss. 349, 37 So. 643, 70 L. R. A. 642, 107 Am.
