Road in Derry Township. Appeal by Supervisors of Derry Township.
    Argued April 20, 1899.
    July 28, 1899:
    Appeal, No. 93, April T., 1899, by-supervisors of Derry township, from decree of Q. S. Westmoreland Co., Nov. Sess., 1897, No. 4, confirming report of viewers vacating public road.
    Before Rige, P. J., Beaver, 0ready, Smith, W. W. Porter, W. D. Porter and Beeber, JJ.
    Reversed.
    Opinion by Rice, P. J.
   Opinion by

Rice, P. J.,

It was admitted at bar that this proceeding to vacate is so closely related to, and dependent on, the proceeding to lay out a road, in which we have just filed an opinion (No. 92, April term, 1899), that if the latter cannot be sustained, this must also fall. This is apparent from the viewer’s report in the proceeding referred to.

The order of confirmation is reversed and all the proceedings are set aside.
