The Superior Court of New York City October 10, 1891 (Murphy v. Suburban Rapid Transit Co.)

By the Court.—Gildersleeve, J.

We are satis*25fied, from a careful examination of the evidence in this case, that in constructing the bridge and its footways over the Harlem river, the defendant, at the point where the plaintiff received her injury, interfered with a part of the public highway, without authority or warrant of law therefor.
