Description

DUNCAN, Justice. These are appeals from judgments rendered upon directed verdicts for the appellee, Ashland Oil Company, denying recovery to the appellants, James Beckham and Arthur Jump, for personal injuries which they sustained on September 2, 1950, as the result of an explosion at the Ashland Oil Company plant in Covington, Kentucky. Appellants, Beckham and Jump, were employees of Wynn Brothers Construction Company, engaged by appellee as independent contractors to perform certain work, including the cleaning of gasoline storage tanks at appellee's Covington plant. On September 2, 1950, appellants were directed to clean storage tank number 313, and about 10:30 a. m., they went to the tank for that purpose. As a part of the cleaning out process, all gasoline is pumped from the tank and an electric pump owned by appellee had been connected to the tank on the previous afternoon for this purpose. The pump was running when appellants left work on the afternoon of September 1, and apparently ran all night since the gasoline in the tank had been reduced by the following morning from a level of 16 feet to 3 feet.
