Huggins v. McGregor

We know of but one case where a right of way can arise from necessity, and that is when one sells land to another which is surrounded by other lands of the vendor. Here from the necessity of’ the case the grant carries with it a right of way over some part of the vendors land. A right of way by prescription may arise from long use. Wherever a person has been in the uninterrupted use and occupation of a right of way over another’s grounds for twenty years, the jury may presume a grant. It is a question of fact for the jury.

Verdict for the appellant.
