Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Surveys and Boundaries — Appeal—Bond Sufficient to Give Jurisdiction. A bond given to effect an appeal from a survey, by a party affected thereby, and running to the party or'parties who requested the same, is sufficient to give the court jurisdiction of the case, although other persons may also be affected by the survey.</p> <p>2. -Statutory Construction. The law favors appeals, and the statute (Gen. Stat. 1901, § 1821), being silent as to whom the bond should run, should be liberally construed in favor of a hearing upon the appeal.</p>
