Syllabus

<p>Party wall — Unlawful entry — Trespass—Evidence—Pleading—Nonsuit.</p> <p>Where plaintiffs declare in trespass for an unlawful entry with force and the tearing down of a party wall, but in their proofs show that the entry was for the purpose of placing supports under the floors of their building, and without objection by them, and that the removal of the wall was by direction of the building inspectors, and there is no evidence that the work was done negligently, or delayed unnecessarily, or that any injury was caused to plaintiffs except such as was the unavoidable consequence of the exercise of a lawful right, a nonsuit is properly entered.</p>
