The opinion of the court was delivered by

Burch, J.:

The plaintiff owned blocks I, J, O and P in Dodd’s addition to the city of Erie. Blocks J and 0 adjoin I and P on the west and are divided into lots. The defendant condemned for railroad purposes a strip of land on the west end of blocks J and 0, whereby the lots were very much shortened.
