Itinvolvea several points of con- siderable interest to owners of real @tate and buildings in this community. The suit was bronglit by James G. Eilis to recover the balance cue of the coutract price for the erec- tion of ® house for the defendant on 7th street West, between Odd Fellows Hall snd the prop- erty of Jobn © McKelden, and an additional sum for extra work, ariounting to about $2,710). The defexiiant claimed to set off or recoup the sum cf $1,200 paid by Fim to Mr. McKelden for Gamwsee resuliivg to bis house grom the remoe | val of the old bnile.ng and excavating the foundation jor tle newone. The defendant claimed that it was stipulated that all work necessary for the erection of the building fhonld be at the expense of the contractor. McKelden’s house wis proved to haye been builtentirely on his own grousd more than twenty years O, and it was argned by the counsel for the defendant that McKelden had thereby acquired fer ois house a prescriptive sight of support in the adjicent property. The Court instructed the jury that in this country no such prescriptive right could be Acquired, however long continued; that to ac- quire & prescriptive right come adverse use of the aajacent property was necessary; that the adjacent owner couli pot preventhis neighbor from building on his own groundsuch a house as he saw fit. that he might rest his foundation on the surface of the soul, or extend it to any @epth he might think proper, and nobody could complain. but that by the mere exercise of this legal righi, thoogh continued for a pe- riod longer than twenty years, he could ac- quire no righ!s in the adjacent propert The jury were likewise instructed that if the cetendant exercited reasonable careinexcava- | ting his own celiar, and damage ensued to the adjacent building, he was not responsible for it, and it was po duty to underpin orshore up McKelden 1. Also, that if McKelden Brew that this excavation was being done, it was bis duty to secrre bis own wali from dam- age. The jury returned a yerdict for plaintitf for $1,761 50 damages Wm. F.
