Opinion

Gaynor, J.

This action was commenced on the 5th day of May, 1919. Its purpose is to enjoin the defendants from proceeding to condemn a strip 32 feet wide, over and across plaintiff’s land, and from proceeding to lay out a public highway thereon, extending from the defendants’ land on the west,, over plaintiff’s land to a public highway on the east.

The plaintiff is a corporation,, and is the owner and in possession of a parcel of land consisting of about 28 acres, [606]*606situated in the eastern part of the north half of the southwest quarter of Section ■ 27-91-16. The plaintiff is a fair association, and its grounds are used for fairground purposes. The defendant Dora Ball is the owner of land immediately west of plaintiff’s land. Wheeler, who figures in this case, owns the land immediately south of the land above referred to. The defendants also own the land immediately south of the Wheeler land. On this south land are defendants’ buildings, and defendants are in actual occupation of the same. We take it, all the defendants’ land is farm land. Their north 40 is used in connection with their south 80.

We submit herewith a- plat, which shows correctly the relative position of the pieces of land involved in this suit.
