The plaintiff on the principal question of the defendant’s negligence maintains that under Carleton v. Franconia Iron & Steel Co. 99 Mass. 216, the case should have been submitted to the jury. The rule formulated in Carleton v. Franconia Iron & Steel Co., which has since been followed in numerous cases, is that the “owner or occupant of land is liable in damages to those coming to it, using due care, at his invitation or inducement, express or implied, on any business to be transacted with or permitted by him, for an injury occasioned by the unsafe condition of the *156land . . . which is known to him and not to them, and which he has negligently suffered to exist and has given them no notice of.”
But, even if the jury would have been warranted in finding that the testator was upon the premises delivering coal by the defendant’s invitation, the shaft revolving at high speed which caught his clothing in such a manner as to hold him firmly while it revolved until the machinery was stopped and he was released after suffering injuries, causing his death the same day, was plainly visible. Its position across the passageway was four and one half feet above the floor of the wagon where he was standing engaged in shovelling coal into the pit, and the uncontroverted evidence introduced by the plaintiff shows that the shaft with the projecting nuts was in full view not only from the floor of the passage way but from the floor of the wagon. The testator could perform the work in his own way and there is no evidence that at any time his attention was distracted, and the danger of contact with the shaft if proper precautions were not taken was obvious. It is manifest under these circumstances that no warning by the defendant would have disclosed a different situation or environment from that which was within his vision.
The plaintiff having failed to show the violation of any legal duty owed to her testator by the company, the exceptions must be overruled. Silvia v. Sagamore Manuf. Co. 177 Mass. 476. Hoyt v. Woodbury, 200 Mass. 343.
So ordered.
