But I consider the error unimportant: because the effect of said order was to declare that said lane is a highway. Sufficient evidence was adduced to satisfy me that 3enjamin' s lane has been used as a highwav for more than 20 years next previous to T,Iarch 21st , 1797 & had been so used from that to the present time Fr of the width of two rods. 'rhe fact that there have been gates and bars on it does not contro- vert the position. Instances of gates on acknowledged high- rec)rd ways, without any evidence of the right to maintain them, are not infrequent in Suffolk County. It Is therefore ordered t that all that part of said order, declaring that said Sichard Benjamin' s lane is a kighway & is now used as such , and as- certaining, describing & entering the same of record, &, the Continuation thereof as described in said order, "Commencing at the main road near the westerly gate-Post of ^'loses C. Cleve- land &. running as described in said order to the corner of Deck 's woodland" of the width of two rods , be and the same is hereby affirmed. ghere was no evidence to show that the highway was laid out or ever run by the westerly line of Peck' s woodland to Jockey Creek. On the contrary all the tdstimony showed that said road was laid out ( or run) and was and is used from the said corner of "eck*s woodland, direct to Jockey Point. It is therefore ordered , that all that part of said 162 order as ascertains , describes and enters of record , said highway as running, from the corner of Peck 's woodland, on the westerly line of said Peck 's woodland to Jockey Creek be , and the same is hereby reversed. i The Commissioners should make a new survey ( blotted out) properly locating and describing last mentioned part of I said highway.

Huntting, Town Clerk. i f i Iw It iE 22 At a meeting of the Commissioners of Highways of the town of Southold in the County of Suffolk, held in the said town at the intersection of the New Suffolk road with the main road in the village of Cutchogue on the 14 day of October 1871 , all the said Commissioners being present , It was represented to the said Commissioners that the Highway known as the New Suffolk Road had been laid out , but that the description where it adjoined the east line of the farm formerly occupied by Henry Landon deceased was imperfect and the boundaries and lines thereof could not be easily ascertained and therefore the said Com- missioners directed a survey of that part of the said road to be made by J. '7ickham Case , Esq . , ;surveyor. And such survey having been made and the said highway adjoining the land formerly of Henry Landon deceased having been found to be less than three rods wide and being of irreg- ular widths as the same was fenced , another meeting of the said Commissioners was held at the intersection of the said TTew Suffolk Road with the T,ain Road in Cutchogue in the said Town of )outhold on the 16 day of December 1871, for the purpose of designating & describing the west line of the said New Suffolk ROad so far as it ad- joins the east line of the farm formerly of ITenry Landon d deceased , with a view to having the same described and entered of Tgecord pursuant to the Statutes , and due notice of the said meeting having been previously given to the owners and occupants of the land of either side ad- joining that part of the said highway , such owners and occupants also attended before the said Commissioners , and it appeared that the said Highway when originally laid out was upon the land wholly belonging to the occupant east of 226 the east line of the farm then of Henry Landon , and that no part of the said Highway was laid out of land of the said Henry Landon, and that while the line fence on the east line of Henry Landon deceased stood substantially as it did when the said Highway was laid out in 1836 and it was claimed that the fence on the east side of said Highway was set upon the line designated by the Commissioners who laid out the said Highway , but that the said Highway was less than three rods wide. Therefore the owners and occupants of the land on either side of said Highway agreed in writing that the East line of the said Highway leading to I;ew Suffolk, where it is opposite the east line of the farm formerly of Henry Landon deceased shall be a line commencing at or near the southwest corner of the lot of Julius . Tuthill , south of the house , at the centre of a Locust tree as it now stands , a little out side of his enclosure , being the westernmost locust tree there and running a straight line to the centre of the most northerly post as it now stands in the picket fence near the barn of Goldsmith & Tuthill at the surface of the ground, thence continuing the same course until it strikes the outside of the curbstone on the west side of the store of Goldsmith & Tuthill ana continuing on the outer side of the curb stone as they now are on the west side of said store and on the same course therewith to the main Country road , and that the said Highway shall be three rods wide measuring �t a right angle from said line the whole dis- tance thereof , and shall be opened to that width by an appropriate order, and by removal of fences as soon as can conveniently be done. And that "dm. II. Case shall receive from the owners of 227 the land on the east side at the rate of Five hundred dollars per acre for all the land within the enclosure and occupied by him & for all land belonging to him or to his wife north of his gate opposite his farm whicli may be taken to make said road three rods wide ,- the firm of Goldsmith & Tuthill shall pay to the said Wil. L. Case the additional sum of twenty five dollars for the change in the course of the road at their store as herein specified . The owners of the land on the east side of said Highway shall release to the said William F'. Case all their interest in any of the land taken or now occupied for said Highway as herein agreed upon. And the said Commissioners believamg that the said p! alteration was necessary and proper and that the public I convenience would be thereby promoted , approved of the said II agreement and directedLa survey of the sCid Highway as pro- posed to be altered to be made--and such survey having been made and tiie said agreement having*., been complied with-- I'P IS ORDERED, DETEMUFED & CERTIFIED that the said Highway leading to New Suffolk shall be and the same hereby is altered and laid out pursuant to the said agreement , whereof a survey has been made in accordance with said agreement and is as follows : : : : : Coruaencing at the centre of the Locust tree mentioned in the said agreement , thence eunr.ing North six and a half degrees 71est (N 6j N) to the centre of the post mentioned 228 in the said agreeme::t and continuing the same course until it strikes the outer side of the curb-stone mentioned in said agreement at a locust post placed there; thence running North forty-four & a half degrees rest (N 442 P7) fifty links (50 L) to another stake placed on the south margin of the main road.
