board of trustees of Lyon township
was illegal and invalid in attempting
to fix the boundaries. and taxes the
costs of the action to the appellees
Anderson and his co-appellants own
farms adjoining the lake bed, which is
the property of G. r. Chamberlain of
this city. The dispute came about
thru an attempt to force the erection
of fence about the lake. The adj
joining property owners claimed GER
tain portions of the lake bed on ripar-
ian rights. prior possession, etc. Mr..
Chamberlain claimed the meandered
lines Of the lake as the boundary.
When the township trustees ordered a
fence constructed about the lake, both
the disputants appeared before them
by their attorneys and were given
hearing. Finally the trustees ordered
the fence constructed upon the mean
dered lines, which was a victory for
Mr.. Chamberlain.
Messrs. Anderson and others then
appealed to the district court Judge
Whitaker finds that in cases of dispute
