A. S. Walker, Presiding; j. P. Hart, Clerk.
In the matter of Shapard and John
son VS.. John o. johnson, Sueing for
right-of-way across the premises of
defendant, Judge Walker yesterday
issued the following order:
"Ordered, that upon the complain
ants filing their bond in one thousand
dollars, conditioned and approved as
required by law, the injunction will
issue to the following extent, viz:
Restraining defendant, his agent and
employees from obstructing in the
way described in the bill through and
over his lands against the free use
thereof by the complainants and their
tenants, occupying the lands of COM
plainantS described in the bill, the
way from the land of complainants
described in the bill, through the land
of the defendant to be unobstructed
and open to the complaintants and
the tenants upon thesa lands of the
said Shapard and Johnson for their
necessary use in reaching the public
road and in returning. The complain
ants and tenants aforesaid having the
right-of-way to be charged with the
duty of closing gates upon said way,
passed through by them, and of fas-
tening them on passing through, with
such security as the fastenings pro-
vided by the defendant shall reasona-
bly, afford. Further prayer in the
bill refused.
That the public may not be misled
we explain that the order is solely for
the individual benefit of the party to
the 'pendente lite, the matter having.
yet to be determined upon its merits,
it being doubtful, in the opinion of
the court, it such right of way or
basement can be established.
