New York Supreme Court December 15, 1874 (Jones v. Smith)

Bockes, J.

The true line between the farms was intended to be, and was in fact, the dividing line between the Montressor and the Ross patents. The first deed put in evidence by the plaintiff, dated March 16th, 1830, bounded his lot on the east by that line; and this patent line was ever after, in all the conveyances including the one to the plaintiff in 1845, recognized as the true line.
