Duncan, J.,
dissenting'. In my judgment this bill in equity should be dismissed first because there is no evidence of injury to the plaintiff distinct from that suffered by other members of the public, Currier v. Davis, 68 N. H. 596, cf. White Mt. &c. Co. v. Levesque, 99 N. H. 15, 18; and secondly because the evidence did not warrant a finding that the owner must have *517known that the public use was “not in reliance upon toleration or permission, but without regard to [the owner’s] consent” or that the use was of such a character as to interfere with the rights of the owner so that it would have “supposed that the public was occupying . . . under a claim of right.” Wason v. Nashua, 85 N. H. 192, 198, 199. See Whitcher v. State, 87 N. H. 405, 413; Stickley v. Sodus, 131 Mich. 510, 517.
