U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Massachusetts November 30, 1909, No. 587 (Adams v. City of Woburn)

LOWEEE, Circuit Judge.

The petition was originally filed in this case by Adams and Mrs. Williams. It alleged that Adams was a citizen of New York, the former owner of land in the city of Woburn, which had been taken by the city for a water supply, and that Mrs. Williams held a mortgage upon this land. The petition went on to pray an assessment of damages.
