Text
Every proprietor joining a wall has the right of making it a wall in common, in whole or
in part, by repaying to the owner thereof one-half of its value, or one-half of the part which
the proprietor wishes to hold in common, and one-half of the value of the ground on which it
is built, if the person who has built it has laid the foundation entirely upon the person’s own
ground.
