The plaintiff’s fall was caused by striking his foot against the edge of an asphalt pavement which at the line of the house steps was on the same level with the brick pavement which it adjoined, but was two or three inches above it at the curb. *599The accident happened before sunset on a clear day in June, when the plaintiff could have seen tire inequality in the pavement if he had looked. He testified that he did not look at the pavement at all. He was familiar with the locality; he had walked on this pavement almost daily for fourteen months and had not observed any defect in it. He was negligent in 'not looking where he was going, and if the defect was of such a nature as to have escaped his observation in his continual use of the pavement, it was not such as would warrant the imputation of notice to the city.
The judgment is affirmed.
