The admission of these two papers in evidence amounts to a judicial direction to the jury that they tend, either of themselves or in connection with some other evidence in the case, to prove that the plaintiff, on or about the fifth day of November, 1913, expressed her satisfaction with the condition of these front steps, and that the carriers to which their ends were nailed were not rotten and dangerous at the time of the accident six and a half months later. The fact that these steps were not, in September, 1913, considered strong enough to bear the weight of a piano is no evidence that they were unsafe for the plaintiff to walk upon at that time or at any later date.
