Syllabus

<p>Dedication. Streets. Extent. Acceptance.</p> <p>Where the owner impliedly dedicated a strip of land for a street by platting his land into lots and streets, making a map thereof and selling the lots as laid out on the map, the fact that the municipality, for more than ten years thereafter, used only a portion of the land designated as a street, did not deprive it of the right to use the entire strip for a street when necessary for the convenience of the public.</p>
