Syllabus

<p>Prescriptive Rights in Land do not Pass to a Grantee by Deed of Specified Acreage.</p> <p>A purchaser of a specified acreage of land, cut off by accurate survey from one side of a larger tract belonging to the grantor, does not acquire title to an additional- strip lying outside of his surveyed line, to which he contends his predecessor acquired title by adverse possession through a mistake as to the location of the true boundary line; in the absence of the predecessor in title as a party to the ease, the owner of the adjoining lands will be granted an injunction against occupancy of said strip by the grantee of said predecessor in title.</p> <p>[Syllabus by the court.]</p>
