Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Law Times Reports, Vol. 4: A Collection of Leading Cases Decided in the Courts of the United States, and Courts of Last Resort of the Several States; Together With a Digest of Cases of Value Reported in American Legal Periodicals During the Year 1877 In what has here been said, it is not intended to decide or to intimate that a sewer tax may not under some circumstances be lawful, though apportioned by the area of the lots assessed. If under the law providing therefor the assessment were confined exclusively to lots lying contiguous to each other, and on or near the street in which the sewer was to be con structed, and all properly urban lots, or, as they are sometimes designated in lots, as distinguished from the outer lands of the town which receive only slight and indirect benefit from such improvements, and if the law also provided for private drains into the sewer as matter of right on the part of the proprietors Of the lots assessed, the case would be so different from the one now before us that much of what we have said could have no application. We confine our discussion strictly to the record before us, and to the act under which this assessment is laid, not caring to enter upon any discussion Of hypothetical cases which may never arise, or which, if they do arise, can better be considered when their special features are presented for consideration.
