Claimant, as the insurer against fire and as subrogee of Greenbrier Cable Corporation, lessee of property owned by the County Court of Greenbrier County, West Virginia, claims damages in the sum of $146.25, resulting from a fire on November 23, 1970, which burned a suspension and messenger wire cable used as a television transmission cable strung on utility poles near the building leased by claimant, the fire having totally destroyed the old jail building owned by the Greenbrier County Court.
The facts as to the fire are fully set forth in an opinion of this Court in Claim No. D-585b*, and rather than repeat the same here, reference is made to that opinion. In accordance with that opinion in which this Court held that the fire resulted from the negligence of the respondent, we likewise hold in this claim, and do hereby award the claimant the sum of $146.25.
Award of $146.25.
