Syllabus

<p>Partition — Equity—Vacation, of street.</p> <p>An answer to a bill in equity in partition is insufficient which, after admitting the facts averred in the bill, alleges that the value of the property in suit has been greatly depreciated by an ordinance of the city vacating the street upon which it is located, and that “ the defendants suggest, as the property cannot be divided, that it would not be advisable, and it would be highly inequitable and very prejudicial to their interests, and' to the interests of all parties interested, to enforce partition or distribution of the property aforesaid.”</p>
