Superior Court of Buffalo March 24, 1890 (Rummel v. New York, Lackawanna & Western Railway Co.)

lead-opinion

Titus, J.

This action is brought against the defendant for closing Goethe street with an embankment. It appears that some time prior to 1877, Joseph Churchyard, who was the owner of a tract of land, caused it to be surveyed and laid out into lots, with public streets, and filed a map of such tract, showing the blocks, lots, and streets in the county clerk’s office.
