AND $1,000 DAMAGE
LinHood Street Nei6hbors Take
Property Dispute to Court

The sum of $4,000 in damages and
an Injunction are asked in a suit
brought today by Henry W. and
Anna Essel against Sylvester and
Helena Sufranski through Prosecut-
ing Attorney Joseph G. Woods.
The plaintiffs who are owners of
property at 145 Linwood street COM
plain that since July of this year til.
defendants, whose property adjoins
their land and which properties are
separated by a brook, have up to
1.-THE present time and are engaged in
changing and diverting the course
Of the brook.
The plaintiffs claim that a large
portion of the stream. was filed in
along the northern bank by the de-
PENDANTS and further charge that
they have damaged the plaintiffs
property with axes, shovels and
spades. which implements they have
used in digging long trenches on the
northerly boundary along a concrete
wall, which according to the plain
tiffs has served and serves as a
foundation for their house and also
as a boundary line, and as means OF
safety from the overlooking of the
brook in stormy and rainy seasons
OF the year.
BY such actions, it is claimed tina
the defendants have manifestly mad,
efforts to undermine the wall ant
divert the channel and that the!
have actually been engaged in theil
operations. The wall. by virtue o
the digging is in danger of being un
dermined and destroyed by the &C
tons of the defendants. to wit: the.
have dug "a large trench along tn
bottom of the wall. threatening 1t
destruction by reason of removal o
the soil: they have filled in larg
quantities of dirt along the brook OF
the north side. which causes tn
brook to divert its course; by thi
action they have threatened to de
stroy the wall in stormy seasons an
cause great and irreparable damag
to the plaintiffs property.
1t is further claimed that tn
plaintiffs have on divers occasion
requested the defendants to desis
from destroying their property bu
without avail. The defendants re
fused and ignored all requests an
threatened further destruction.
The plaintiffs ask an injunction I
prevent the defendants from furthe
digging and $4,000 damages. Paper
