State v. Ford & Baldwin, 1 N.J.L. 64 (N.J. 1791)
State v. Ford & Baldwin
Opinion of the Court
The court quashed the order—
1st. Because the line was run without giving any notice to Ogden, and only four days to Minn, the tenant.
3d. It was proved that, as the lands became improved, a fence had always been erected according to the old line.
4th. Under pretence of settling a line fence, the surveyors have tried a title.
Cited in Miller v. Barnet, 2 South. 550.
