The road is approximately one and one-half miles long and is located on property that is either owned or controlled by King William Smith. Smith erected an iron pipe gate across the road. R. W. King and wife, Laura King, filed suit to enjoin Smith from obstructing the road. The jury found that the road had never been dedicated as a public road by Smith or his predecessors in title. A take nothing judgment was entered. R. W. King and wife, Laura King, have appealed. We affirm.
