Walton v. Scott, 4 Conn. Rep. 527. But we forbear a decision of these questions. It was also claimed, that the judgment of the superior court was erroneous, because it left undecided the motion in arrest of judgment. We do not say that a motion in arrest, cannot, in any case, be interposed, after an issue put to, and tried by the court, instead of the jury; it is certainly an unusual practice in this state; but, as in the present case, the declaration is adjudged sufficient, and as the motion in arrest, must, therefore, have been overruled, the defendant has no ground of complaint, because a. formal judgment was not entered up against him upon it. There is no error in the judgment of the superior court. Where a mortgage was given conditioned to save the mortgagee harmless from his indorsement of specified notes, and such notes, as they respectively became due, were renewed, by the substitution of other not(s or drafls having 'difl'erent names on them; but the obligation of the original indorsement by the mortgagee was preserved through the whole series of renewals and substitutions, without any new credit being given, and the substituted paper was ultimately paid by him; the debt thus paid being the same debt for the security of which he made the original indorsement; it was held, on a bill of foreclosure against the mortgagor and subsequent mortgagees, that the plaintifi' was entitled to the relief sought. The case of Peters v. Goodrich, 3 Conn. P-ep. 146. is not a binding authority. Where a mortgage embracing personal property, was given to secure certain debts due to the mortgagee, and liabilities assumed by him for the benefit of the mortgagor; and the mortgagee permitted such personal property to go...

Gerald, 100 Me. 351, 61 Atl. 785. The term public use, as related to condemnation proceedings, has been strictly limited in some States to uses governmental in their nature when adminis tered so that the public has a common right upon equal terms to the use or benefit of the property taken. Varner v. Martin, 21 W. Va. 534; Tyler v. Beacher, 44 Vt. 648; Bottoms v. Brewer, 54 Ala. 288; Fleming v. Hull, 73 Iowa, 598, 35 N. W. 673; Brown v. Gerald, 100 Me. 351, 61 Atl. 785; Fallslmrg Power & Mfg. Co. v. Alea: ander, 101 Va. 98, 43 S. E. 194. In Connecticut and some other States it has been defined as including also uses governmental in their nature, although administered for a private interest, when the taking itself is for purposes of great advantage to the community. Olm stead v. Camp, 33 Conn. 532; Todd v. Austin, 34 Conn. 78; Hand Gold Mining Co. v. Parker, 59 Ga. 419; Potlatch Lumber Co. v. Peterson, 12 Idaho, 769, 88 Pac. 426; Seely v. Sebastian, 4 Ore. 25; Dayton G'. cl: S. Mining Co. v. Seawell, 11 Nev. 394; Nash v. Clark, 27 Utah, 158, 75 Pac. 371. These two definitions correspond to the active and passive significance of the word use, as meaning enjoyment or as meaning utility, the second definition comprehending both significations; and they lead to the same results in their application to specific cases, except in respect of the much controverted question whether the public benefit to be derived from the development of the material resources of the State will justify the delegation of the power of eminent domain in favor of private owners of lands so situated that their economic value cannot otherwise be realized. The cases dealing with this special problem have arisen under...

Excerpt: ... lay out the canal and the works connected therewith, to notify the per-sons whose lands are taken, to assess damages therefor, to make entries 'of all their determinations and decisions, Whether they allow or disallow damages. When completed, by the 21st section, they are to return their report to the secretary of the state, and their report of expenses to the comptroller. Section 5th directs, that the corporation may, with the consent and approbation of the commissioners, einter upon and possess all lands and water necessary for the prosecution of the improvements intended by the act of incorporation, doing no unnecessary damage; and the commissioners shall appraise the damages sustained thereby, unless voluntarily relinquished. This, it is believed, is an outline of the duty of the commissioners, until the canal is completed. Now, it cannot be claimed, that here is given any authority to appraise lands not taken or entered upon for the use of the improvements here included; nor any authority to take lands not appraised. And as the plaintifi"s lands were never reported by the commissioners, as necessary for this purpose, and were never taken for this purpose, and the defendants now claim that they are not at this moment taken, only remotely affected; we cannot see, that the commissioners were ever authorised under that section to appraise them; or, if application was now made, that they could appraise them. But if we consider that this land is taken, and that the commissioners may, at any time, make an appraisement, a. question arises, whether as this has not been done, the defendants are justified at all, because it might have been done, or even if it may now be done. In such a case, before a private corpo-ation can take...

Excerpt: ... the plea, of the present duty of the plaintiff; but this is not an averment of the necessary facts to sustain the plea. Besides, it only states that Martin Wright and the defendant in fact divided a certain fence, many years since; and that they, so long as the said Martin was in life, and the plaintiff since, as to his lot, have continued to maintain that particular fence according to said ancient arrangement; but no perpetual obligation, as founded in such arrangement, and to run with the land to the present occupant, is averred, or can be inferred from whatis averred. And further, whatever usage or agreement is set up in the plea, or may be inferred from what is set up, relates to the two farms of the said Martin Wright and the defendant, as they existed, and were enclosed, in their ancient and unbroken state; whereas divisions 'and subdivisions have since taken place; and strangers, purchasers or execution creditors, ignorant of the existence of any ancient arrangement, have become or may become owners of these farms; every parcel of which now sustains, or may sustain relations to every other parcel, most essentially qualifying any duties to fence, of an ancient date. But to come to the main question in band. What is the eiiect of a division of fence, made by persons under whom. the parties claim title? Does such a division run with the land through all time? Is an agreement, unrecorrled, if not unwritten, and perhaps unknown, of the nature of a covenant which ru-ns with the land '3 This is an interesting question of great practical importance to the people of this state. It can be answered only by a careful study of the various provisions of our statutes on the subject of fences, which have been enacted from time to time, ...

Excerpt: ...here, they are not here complaining of that; "and fih the Plmlltllffi themselves had such notice, they cannot avflll emselves here of want of notice to the remai11der111611 Assuming, then, for the purpose of argument, that if the plaintifls had no notice at all of the meetings of the council or the board of appraisal, here in question, the assessment complained of would be void as to them, the question is, did they have such notice as makes the assessment binding upon them unless appealed from. Under the city cl1a.1'tertl1e proper authorities clearly had the power to pave the street, and to assess benefits therefor, as they attempted to do in this case; 12 Special Laws, p. 537, 57; and if in doing these things they gave due notice thereof to the plaintiffs, then the acts of the city authorities would be binding upon the plaintiffs, unless appealed from in the manner provided by law. New Haven v. Fair Haven Q' W. R. 00., 38 Conn. 422, 430; Ii'ez_'fer V. Bridgeport, 68 id. 401, 411. Notice of the hearing before the common council, upon the order to " asphalt" Main Street, was apparently required to be given by publication twice in certain daily newspapers of the city. It appears that such notice was not given in this way, but notice was directed by the council to be given to the " estate of Carlos Curtis " and that such a notice was served personally upon the plaintifi as executrix. It thus appears that the executrix, who was also the life tenant and only ascertained person interested in the land, had ample, reasonable and certain notice of the hearing before the common council upon the order to " asphalt " the street. The object of notice is to give the party notified an opportunity to...

Excerpt: ...done in conformity to an arrangement made by Brockway with the defendant, that he, the defendant, should hold possession of such boots and shoes until Broclcway should indenmify him for his indorsement of the note Upon the facts, so agreed and claimed, the plaintiff request-' ed 'the court to charge the jury, that no notice to the de-310 fendant, as indorser, was by law necessary; and if it was, that the notice transmitted, by the cashier of the Union Bank, to the cashier of the United States Branch Bank at Hartford, was a sufiicient notice to the indorser. The court charged the jury, that it was incumbent upon the plaintiff to prove, that legal notice of the dishonour of the note had been given to the defendant, notwithstanding the transmission of notice, by the cashier of the Union Bank, to the cashier of the United States Branch Bank, 11111688 the jury should find, that the note was made by Brockway, and indorscd by the defendant to the plaintifl', for the defendant's own accommodation, and not for that of Brockway; and if the jury should so find, then no notice of the dishonour of the note was necessary, and their verdict must be rendered for the plaintiif; otherwise, for the defendant. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant; and thereupon the plaintiff moved for a new trial. Law, in support of the motion, contended, 1. That promissory notes, when indorsed, stand on the same footing, and are governed by the same rules, as bills of exchange. Heylyn & al. v. Adamson, 2 Burr. 669. Brown v. Harraden, 4 Term Rep. 148. Orr & al. v. Maginnis, 7 East 359. 2. That notice is not necessary where the indorser has no effects in the hands of the maker, or holds security to indemnify him against his...
