Sibley v. Ellis, 77 Mass. 417 (Mass. 1858).

Opinion

By the Court.

The instructions were clearly right. The mere fact that the use of the way began in a trespass does not show that it was not continued under a claim of right; and under the instructions given the jury have found that the possession was continued under such circumstances.

Exceptions overruled.
