Opinion
The learned judge gave due effect to the agreement, reserving the pine and hemlock trees growing on the land. It applied to living trees, then of suitable size for use.
A person having a right to cut and remove timber growing on the land of another may be compelled to take it off after a reasonable time, under all the circumstances, or he will be presumed to have relinquished all right thereto. When one having a lien on goods sets up a claim hostile to the rights of the owner and wrongfully sells the entire property, he cannot set up the lien as a bar to an action against him, for his illegal act. We see no error in the charge nor in the answer to the point.
Judgment affirmed.
