Appeal from the District Court of Colorado. Tried below before Hon. M. Kennon.

1Opinion of the Court

GILL, Associate Justice.

This is a boundary suit brought in the form of an action of trespass to try title to recover of appellees the Matthews survey, patented to appellants on May 2, 1901. The Matthews location is on a supposed vacancy between the Cartwright and later surveys to the north of it, and the Matthews field notes call for the north line of the Cartwright as its southern boundary. The true location of the north liné of the Cartwright league was the matter in dispute, and upon conflicting evidence the verdict and judgment were for appellees. The cause is here upon appeal.
