This proceeding was instituted by the city of Nashville in August, 1887, to condemn and appropriate what is known as “Kirkpatrick’s *513Hill” for reservoir purposes. The jury of view assessed the damages at $9,686. Alloway and wife, the owners of the property, appealed from that report, and obtained a trial in the Circuit Court, where verdict and judgment were rendered for $12,532. From that judgment Allowmy and wife have prosecuted an appeal in error to this Court.
