Tarboro v. . Forbes

The case agreed shows these facts:

East Park Avenue, a street regularly laid off and established in the town of Tarboro, extends from Main to Panola Street, and between these two it is intersected by St. Andrew, St. Patrick, and St. David streets. Abutting the avenue on the north are several residential lots with a lineal frontage of about 1,300 feet, excepting the space occupied by the intersecting streets, and on the south of the avenue is the abutting town common, with practically similar lineal frontage. The common is owned by the town and held for the use and enjoyment of all its citizens.
