Syllabus

<p>Road law — Laying out public road — Termini—Act of April 28, 1909, P. L. U2.</p> <p>1. The Act of April 23, 1909, P. L. 142, which provides that the termini of a proposed public road shall be fixed “by giving the exact distance from an interesecting public road, street or railroad already opened,” is mandatory, and an omission to comply with the act, when it can be complied with, is fatal to the proceedings.</p> <p>2. A petition for a public road to lead “from the old Sonman Station in said township of Portage to Washington Street in said Borough of Portage,” is fatally defective.</p>
