Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Cities of Third Class — Obtaining Water Supply — Land Outside Corporate Limits Condemned. For the purpose of obtaining a water supply a city of the third class may, when necessary, condemn land situated within or without its corporate boundaries, under the authority conferred in section 1942 of the General Statutes of 1915.</p> <p>2. Same — Obtaining Water Supply — Earlier Statute$ Not Repealed. Another method for the appropriation of land for waterworks by cities is provided in chapter 208 of the Laws of 1872, as amended by chapter 38 of the Laws of 1883. The later act did not repeal the earlier one, and, as both systems are in existence, the power of appropriation may be exercised under either of them.</p>
