Supreme Court of Rhode Island November 22, 1884 (Town of New Shoreham v. Ball)

Durfee, C. J.

This is a petition for the new trial of an action of ejectment in which the plaintiff, the town of New Shoreham, recovered a verdict against the defendants, who are the petitioners. The new trial is asked because, as alleged, the court erred in certain rulings and instructions given at the trial, and in refusing certain rulings and instructions requested by the defendants.
