Memorandum: The claim is for damages arising out of the appropriation of parcel 30, a piece of unimproved marginal land, .03 of an acre in area. The- sole damages resulting from the taking of this parcel is the value of the property taken, as we find rio support in the record for ariy finding of consequential damage therefrom to the property remaining. ¡ Any damage caused to what remained of claimant’s farm after the taking was riot as a consequence of the taking, but was the result of other and unrelated causes, for which no claim has been made and for which no 1 compensation should be had. The judgniént should be modified by'striking therefrom’ damages other than the market value of the parcel appropriated, and ‘ as modified, affirmed. All concur.
