In re Widening of Chestnut Street. Appeal of Crump et al.
    
    No appeal lies from the decree of the Court of Quarter Sessions in the case of a street or road.
    In the foregoing case an appeal was also taken by John Crump and others from the decree of the court.
    
      A. A. Hirst, J. Q-. Hosengarten and M. Arnold, for appellants.
    No counsel appeared contra.
    March 11th 1878.
   Mr. Justice Mercur

delivered the opinion of the court,

As no Act of Assembly gives an appeal from a decree of the Quarter Sessions, in the case of a street or road, no appeal lies. The proceedings can be reviewed on certiorari only. On such a writ we have just reviewed the record in this case; therefore,

Appeal quashed.
