1Opinion of the CourtChief Justice Cartwright
The superior court of Cook county sustained a demurrer to the bill of complaint of the appellant, the town of Cicero, wherein said town prayed that the appellee, the city of Chicago, should be enjoined from asserting jurisdiction over certain territory which had been within the corporate limits of said town and which the city claimed had been detached from said town and annexed to said city, and also from interfering with the possession by said town of the public property in said territory. The complainant elected to stand by the bill, and the court dismissed it for want of equity.
