1Opinion of the CourtCotter, J.

In this action the plaintiff seeks a declaratory judgment determining “whether the plaintiff’s property has been effectively taken by the defendant and if so, the date of such taking.” The case was referred to Hon. Howard W. Alcorn, state referee, who, exercising the powers of the Superior Court, answered the question propounded in the affirmative and concluded that the property “in a constitutional sense” was “taken by the Highway Department on September 8, 1966.” The defendant has appealed from the judgment rendered and from the denial of the defendant’s motion to open judgment.
