We took the liberty of borrowing a piece of interesting history about Breedings.
___
"Appellee Breeding operated a drug store in the City of Homestead.
For the convenience of its customers, appellee operated and maintained a parking lot at the rear of its store. About 7:15 p.m. on the night in question,
Mrs. Delany entered the parking lot in an automobile driven by her husband
who parked the car at about the center of the lot.
Intending to mail a letter at a mailbox on the corner and then enter the drug store to make some purchases, Mrs. Delany got out of the automobile alone. She proceeded across the lot toward a sidewalk.
The parking lot was bordered by 4" x 4" black bumper logs, obviously placed around the lot so as to prevent the automobiles from being driven upon the sidewalk area. She proceeded in the dark between two parked vehicles. As she was about to emerge onto the sidewalk from between the two automobiles,
she tripped over a bumper log with resulting injuries. Her deposition reveals that she was not hurrying and was walking in a normal fashion. She stated that she had not been on the lot previously although she was aware of the fact that possibly some of the other parking lots in Homestead used similar bumper logs. Her husband's deposition was rather confused as to whether or not she had previously been on the lot. She did not see the bumper log before she tripped over it. The trial judge apparently was of the view that she was guilty of contributory negligence as a matter of law and granted summary final judgment for the defendant. Reversal of this judgment is now sought."
