Description
Mr. John M. Harlan for the plaintiffs in error. While the right of a common carrier to contract for a reason able limitation of his responsibility cannot be disputed, it is equally clear that such responsibility cannot be restricted or qualified, unless he 'expressly stipulates for the restriction and qualification.' York Company v. Central R. R., 3 Wall. 107. The exemption should be specific and certain, leaving no room for controversy. New Jersey Steam Nav. Co. v. Merchants' Bank, 6 How. 383; Railroad Co. v. Manufacturing Co., 16 Wall. 329.
