Richards v. Trezvant

194 S.E. 326, 185 S.C. 489, 1937 S.C. LEXIS 45
Supreme Court of South Carolina·Decided December 10, 1937·No. 14583·Published·Cited by 2 cases

Opinion

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice Bonham.

This appeal is from an order of Judge Holman, of the County Court of Richland County, which permanently enjoins the appellant from obstructing a certain alley lying between the lots of the respondent and the appellant, and enjoining him from interfering with the free use of the alley by the respondent.

It appears from the record that Caroline Trezvant owned the lot of land described in her will as follows : “Five-eighths of an acre more or less touching the eastern boundary of the City of Columbia, the same being the southern corner of the intersection of Harden and Senate Streets.”

By her will she directed that this land be divided into nine lots, one of them to be allotted to each of her eight children, each of said eight lots to have frontage on Harden Street or Senate Street; she further directed that a lot in the rear of said lots be given to her adopted daughter, Carrie Trezvant.

The manner in which the division and allotment of the lots was made is shown by the plat, which is set out on page 25 of the record. It will greatly aid in the correct understanding of the issues involved in this appeal if this plat is reproduced in the report of the case.
