eleventh instruction in Illinois

1987(See Auton v. Logan Landfill, Inc. (1985), 105 Ill. 2d 537, 549 , 475 N.E.2d 817, 821 .) The defect in this instruction was “cured” by the giving of plaintiff’s eleventh instruction, IPI Civil 2d No. 150.02, which correctly stated that for plaintiff to prevail she must prove (1) Watson was intoxicated at the time of the collision, (2) defendant, his agents or servants sold or gave the intoxicating liquor consumed by Watson, (3) the liquor thus consumed caused the intoxication of Watson, (4) Watson’s intoxication was at least one cause of the occurrence in question, and (5) as a result of the o

1937However, the instruction in question was approved in the case of People v. Meyer, 289 Ill. 184 .

1930This carries the family purpose doctrine too far as will appear from Gates v. Mader, 316 Ill. 313 , where the court distinguishes Arkin v. Page, 287 Ill. 420 , and recognizes the latter case as good law where the son took the car without the father’s knowledge or consent.

1922The rule announced in these instructions agrees with that announced in Peoria, Bloomington and Champaign Traction Co. v. Vance, 225 Ill. 270 , and the cases there cited.

1922Joseph’s Home, supra. The eleventh instruction informed the jury that unsoundness of mind, within the meaning of the law, is a disease of the brain affecting the mind to such an extent as to destroy a man’s capacity to understand the business he was engaged in when making the will, and unless the jury believed from the evidence that the testator’s brain was diseased to such an extent that he did not have mind and memory sufficient to enable him to know and understand the particular business he was engaged in at the time he made the instrument in question, the jury should find that it was the t

1921The substance of this instruction is, that if the jury believe from the evidence that the testatrix was of unsound mind upon the question of who were the natural objects of her bounty and upon the question of the effect of the disposition she was making of her property then she would have no right to make a will, and it is also subject to the criticism made in Nieman v. Schnitker, 181 Ill. 400 , of a similar instruction, viz., “that a person may have upon some subjects, and even generally, mind and memory and sense to know and comprehend ordinary transactions, and yet upon the subject of those

1917Co. v. Crose, 214 Ill. 602 .) The modification of appellant’s eleventh instruction, by interpolating the words “in time to have avoided being injured” was properly made.

1916Still these explanations may, themselves, be found on the face of the paper.” In the case of Hodge v. Gilman, 20 Ill. 437 , the court says: “It is, at least, the settled law of this court that such interlineations must be explained by the party claiming the benefit of the paper, the presumption of law being that the interlineations were made after the execution by the maker.” Again, in the case of Milliken v. Marlin, 66 Ill. 13 , the court in commenting upon the question of the alteration of an instrument says: “As to the eleventh instruction, it was claimed that the power of attorney which wa

1914No such institution was in existence when the will spoke, and the question was whether the lapsed gifts became intestate estate, or went into the residuum under the twelfth clause of the will; and under the authority of Dorsey v. Dodson, supra, it was held that the gifts became intestate estate.

1913“It is not error to give an abstract proposition of law'to a jury as an instruction if it will not mislead them.” Anthony Ittner Brick Co. v. Ashby, 198 Ill. 562 .

1913It reads, “The court instructs the jury that even if they believe from the evidence that Golden made the first attack upon the defendant and assaulted the defendant with a knife still if you further believe that the said Golden afterwards ceased to attack the defendant, and after the defendant and Golden were separated the defendant again attacked Golden at a time when the said Golden was not making any attack upon the defendant, then you are instructed that the defense of necessary self defense is not established in law.” A similar instruction was before the court in Von Reeden v. Evans, 52 I

1909In Parsons v. Millar, 189 Ill. 107 , the eleventh clause of the will provided: “I give and bequeath to my son William E.

1907The first two-thirds of this instruction is substantially the same as the first part of the one given on this subject in Rider v. People, 110 Ill. 11 , but instead of concluding, as that instruction did, by further instructing the jury that if, after considering all the evidence, they find that the accused has willfully and corruptly testified falsely to any fact material to- the issues they may entirely disregard his testimony except as corroborated by other credible evidence, the present instruction concluded in these words: “And from that and all other facts and circumstances in evidence be

1905In C. & A. R’d Co. v. Corson, 198 Ill. 98,102 , the court cite, with approval,the following from Thompson on Negligence: “Where one, without his own fault, is, through the negligence of another, put in such apparent danger as to cause him terror, loss of self-possession and bewilderment, and, as a natural result thereof, he, in attempting to escape, puts himself in a more dangerous position, he is not, as a matter of law, chargeable with contributory negligence that will prevent him from recovering damages for the injury.” The question whether the appellee was guilty of contributory negligence

1903That instruction is as follows: “The. court further instructs you that if you believe from a preponderance of the evidence in this case,-that Jesse England, at the time of the execution of the purported will, was so diseased mentally that he was incapable, by reason of mental weakness, caused by disease; old age,' or other derangement, of acting rationally in the ordinary affairs of life, and of intelligently comprehending the disposition he was making of his property, and the nature and effect of the provisions of said alleged will, then they should find that the writing" produced is not the

1901The eleventh instruction is said to have been held erroneous in Marzen v. The People, 173 Ill. 43 .

1898Not only the defects but the dangers must be known to him.” (Consolidated Coal Co. v. Haenni, 146 Ill. 614 .) The eleventh instruction, in so far as it announced the correct rule of law, was substantially given in the eighth asked by the defendant.

1894The eleventh clause in the contract executed by appellant and appellees was as follows : “Eleventh—It is agreed that neither the party of the first part, nor any connecting line, shall be liable for more than the sum of $100 on account of loss or injury of any one horse or other animal received or carried by the party of the first part under this contract.” A provision of a similar character was a part of a contract of shipment considered by this court in Chicago and Northwestern Railway Co. v. Chapman, 133 Ill. 96 , where it was held: “No representation was made by appellee or his agent to in

1892Under the evidence in this record it was not error to modify the eleventh instruction as given; it was in accordance with the rule in Andrews v. Phelan, supra. The evidence authorized the verdict.

1890The words of the will very well apply to such an object, and therefore, in so interpreting its provisions, no violence is done to the language employed by the. testator.” In Preachers’ Aid Society v. England, 106 Ill. 125 , the Preachers’ Aid Society of the Illinois Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church claimed title under a deed to the “Preachers’ Aid Society of the Illinois Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church.” We there said: “We are of the opinion that the deed of Phillips bearing date September 14, 1874, vested the legal title to the property in controversy in the pl

1888The reason given for supposing this one good is that appellee was cut off from making his proposed defense, because it was attempting to show failure of consideration or want of consideration for the assignment, and that, it .is insisted, can not be done under the general issue, and must be specially pleaded, citing Sheldon v. Lewis, 97 Ill. 640 .
