Schindler v. Link Belt Machinery Co. , 197 Ill. App. 373 ( 1916 )

Mr. Justice Holdom

delivered the opinion of the court.

Abstract of the Decision. Master and servant, § 846^*—when act of servant not within scope of employment. The commission of an assault by a servant, who was engaged in guarding employees of the master on their way home during a strike, upon a person unconnected with and uninterested in the strike during a purely personal altercation, was an act without the scope of the employment of the servant so as not to make the master liable.
