Frazer v. Public Service Railway Co.
Supreme Court of New Jersey · Decided June 18, 1917
89 N.J. Eq. 569; 105 A. 391; 4 Stock. 569; 1917 N.J. LEXIS 501

Frazer v. Public Service Railway Co.

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The decree is affirmed, with costs. We agree with the vice-chancellor’s construction of the powers vested in the Passaic valley sewerage commissioners and his definition of the word “necessary.” We express no opinion on the question whether the covenants in the contract between the sewerage commissioners and the contractors can avail the complainant.

For affirmance — Garrison, Swayze, Trenchard, Bergen, Minturn, Kalisch, Black, White, Heppenheimer, Williams, Taylor, Gardner — 12.

For reversal — None.
