    Thomas H. Wesley, Appellant, v. The City of New York, Respondent.
    
      New York city — claim for injuries.
    
    Appeal from an order of the Appellate Term, entered in the New York county clerk’s office on the 5th day of February, 1915, affirming a judgment of the Municipal Court of the city of New York.
   Per Curiam:

We do not agree with the Appellate Term in the reasoning upon which it affirmed this judgment, but according to the evidence it appears that no verified claim was served upon the comptroller, as required by the charter. All that was served upon him was a typewritten paper with a typewritten signature and without venue. We do not think that that was a sufficient compliance with the provision of section 261 of the charter of the city of New York, which requires a verified statement showing in detail the property alleged to have been damaged or destroyed and the value thereof. The determination appealed from should, therefore, be affirmed, with costs. Present — Ingraham, P. J., Clarke, Scott, Dowling and Hotchkiss, JJ. Determination affirmed, with costs.
