City of Chicago v. Edens

This was a petition by the city of Chicago, in the county court of Cook county, under section 7 of the Local Improvement act, to levy a special assessment for the construction of a cement sidewalk six feet in width on each side of Indianapolis avenue, in a south-easterly direction, from the curb line of Ewing avenue, in that city, to the city limits, on the Indiana State line. Appellant appeared and filed 74 objections, which on the hearing before the court were overruled and a judgment entered confirming the assessment roll. From this judgment appellant has prosecuted an appeal to this court.
