1Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
Trexler, J.,
The first objection to the municipal lien in question which the lower court struck from the record, is, that the name of the owner is not correctly given. It is filed against “George B. Berger’s Heirs.”
In Beltzhoover Borough v. Beltzhoover Heirs, 173 Pa. 213, a municipal lien filed against the “Heirs of Jacob Beltzhoover” was sustained. The authorities cited were Wistar v. Phila., 86 Pa. 215; Northern Liberties v. Coates’s Heirs, 15 Pa. 245. Freeport Borough v. Robert *550Miller Estate, 34 Pa. Superior Ct. 395, cited by tbe lower court is not an authority to the contrary.…
