- Trespass to real estate—Measure of damages—Rental value. In an action of trespass to recover damages for injuries caused to a city' lot by the maintenance of a sewer mouth upon the lot, the measure of damages is the injury to the rental value of the lot; but in such a case it is inadmissible to prove what would be the rental value after the erection of a wharf, or what would be the rental value of the property upon an improvement lease.
