Leitch v. Village of LaGrange

This is an appeal from judgments of the county court of Cook county confirming three special assessments made by the village of LaGrange upon the lands of Joseph Leitch and Isabella Peck, the appellants. Assessments 7 and 8 included the lands of both Leitch and of Peck, and were for two different portions of a main trunk sewer, and assessment 17, which included the land of Peck, was for a branch sewer. The matters of the three several petitions of the village were, by agreement of the parties, consolidated, and tried as one cause, and before the court without a jury.
