Appellate Court of Illinois February 25, 1886 (Toof v. City of Decatur)

Pleasants, J.

Bandy’s addition to the town of Decatur, consisting of four and a half blocks from north to south, was laid out in 1836. Along the west side of it was left a strip thirty feet in width, intended to be the east half of a street if the owners of the land adjoining it on the west should contribute the other half.
