pany asserts that the ledge in the
Goodenough claim runs across the
location and enters their location;
that the Goodenough was err
roneously located across the ledge,
and that by the effect of the opera
ton of law the side lines have be-
come and are end lines, and that
the claim is limited to 800 feet on
each side of the lode, and decree
asked for accordingly. 1t is be-
lieved that this is the first suit
ever brought under the decision in
