New York Supreme Court January 15, 1886 (Bedell v. Kennedy)

Daniels, J.

(dissenting):

The verdict was recovered for one-half the appraised value of a party-wall built equally over the line dividing the two lots of ground now owned by the defendant and the assignor of the plaintiff. The lots are on the southerly side of Sixtieth street, in the city of New York, and in May, 1871, were owned by William Boggs and Christian H. Lilienthal.
