This action was brought for the purpose of quieting plaintiffs’ title to an alleged water right in and to sufficient water from a spring on defendants’ land for “household purposes,” for the right to convey the same through a pipe to the adjoining lands of plaintiffs on the west, and to enjoin the defendants from in any way interfering with such water right. The case was tried before the court without a jury, and findings filed upon which judgment was entered for plaintiffs as prayed. This appeal is from the judgment and from the order denying defendants’ motion for a new trial.
