Supreme Court of Pennsylvania December 29, 1828 (Pastorius v. Fisher)

Gibson, C. J.

The principal point was determined in Alexan- ■ derv. Kerr, during the last term at Pittsburg, where it was held, that the law implies damage from flooding the ground of another, though it be in the least possible degree, and without actual prejudice; and the same principle was ruled at Sunbury, the term preceding, in a case the name of which is not recollected.
