Witherspoon v. Blanks

By

The line in controversy, when run to the end of the distance called for, will not reach Cypress-Creek ; where, by the pa*111tent it is said to terminate ; but, to reach that place, it must run three times the distance called for. In all such cases, the invariable rule is to disregard the distance ; and to proceed with the line in the direction called for until it shall intersect the creek, or other natural boundary.

Verdict for the Plaintiff.
